Switching Hosts

[Napster6]

I am trying to switch hosts, I have all the forums folders i uploaded them via FTP

I get the standard database error page with no code on it or anything. It's been awhile since I did this much any ideas, I am assuming I am missing something.

Did you update your includes/config.php file? You can also right click > view source on the page you get the database error to view the error

[Napster6]

I didn't update anything.

charset=ISO-8859-1

that the error msg?

[HMBeaty]

No, and you might want to make sure you update you're config.php file to coincide with your new host

Again, you need to update your config.php file

Okay well background here

I already run vbulletin on my one site, I am hosting this for a friend.
The database and table prefix where do I figure that out again?

--------------- Added [DATE]1251325375[/DATE] at [TIME]1251325375[/TIME] ---------------

mysql_connect() [&lt;a href='function.mysql-connect'&gt;function.mysql-connect&lt;/a&gt;]: Access denied for user 'gf'@'XX.61.149.141' (using password: YES)

THanks for the help by the way

Update the database name, username & password in config.php, they are not the same from server to server typically unless you matched what "your friend" had set in the config file originally.

looks like im stuck on table prefix. how do I decide again how to do that?

[snakes1100]

Use phpmyadmin to view the database, the prefixes will be at the begining of the table names.
