Your instructions say...

PHP Code:

find:
-----

//load config
require("./config.php");

// init db **********************
// load db class
$dbservertype = strtolower($dbservertype);
$dbclassname="./db_$dbservertype.php";
require($dbclassname);

$DB_site=new DB_Sql_vb;

$DB_site->appname="vBulletin Control Panel";
$DB_site->appshortname="vBulletin (cp)";
$DB_site->database=$dbname;
$DB_site->server=$servername;
$DB_site->user=$dbusername;
$DB_site->password=$dbpassword;

replace with:
-------------

//load config
require("./../admin/config.php");

// init db **********************
// load db class
$dbclassname="./../admin/db_$dbservertype.php";
require($dbclassname);

$DB_site=new DB_Sql_vb;

$DB_site->appname="vBulletin Admin Control Panel";
$DB_site->appshortname="vBulletin (mcp)";
$DB_site->database=$dbname;
$DB_site->server=$servername;
$DB_site->user=$dbusername;
$DB_site->password=$dbpassword;
$DB_site->connect();

--------------------------- 


But that code doesn't exist. The code looks (in 2.2.9) like this...

PHP Code:

//load config
require("./config.php");
if ($debug != 1) {
    unset($showqueries);
    unset($explain);
}

// init db **********************
// load db class
$dbservertype = strtolower($dbservertype);
$dbclassname="./db_$dbservertype.php";
require($dbclassname);

$DB_site=new DB_Sql_vb;

$DB_site->appname="vBulletin Control Panel";
$DB_site->appshortname="vBulletin (cp)";
$DB_site->database=$dbname;
$DB_site->server=$servername;
$DB_site->user=$dbusername;
$DB_site->password=$dbpassword;

$DB_site->connect(); 


Your instructions would mean you have 2 connect statements in the final code. Also, you have removed the debug lines and the "$dbservertype" line? What's going on?
