Blank page after SQL restore?
 

Today, my forum had a database error message. So as usual I restored the sql that I made earlier in the day (This happens enough) so I am use to restoring mySQL. Still get a database error.

I figured that sql was bad, so I uploaded the one from the previous day (this one works for a fact), uploaded it and same thing database error. I rebooted my server after each SQL restore.

This has never happened before and I have restored my SQL enough times to know what I'm doing.

I have a feeling a may need to do a fresh install of vbulletin and restore the database.

How/ what is the best way to do a fresh install and restore the database.

Do you see the data in the database?
also..
why? this isn't common..

What is the exact database error you are getting?

Sometimes it would show the database error sometimes not... I do not know if this is the original error, but it seems there is a problem with my database credentials, listed below.

By often enough I mean, I errors have been made when installing mods, things have went wrong before so I am familiar with restoring the database via SSH..it is 75MB.

That error means the information in your config.php file is incorrect or the mysql user was not granted all permissions to the database.
