I think i'm getting the same problem as him! My forum will be running fine people can post, login etc... just sometimes when i click to enter a forum / thread / store / jukebox etc.. any link it will bring me the same error as TRANCEBUDHA

i noticed that it kicks off every member too! not just me... so i could have 50 members online
n once that error pops up everyone is kicked off an has to login again!!!!!!!

i dont have many hacks or mods, most mods are on the templeates. I just checked my config.php and its correct, with pass and user, dbname is also checked. dont know were the problem might be.

if i leave the pas/user on the login in blank, it gives me the user/pass incorect screen. if i place whatever user/pass it gives me back the db problem.


help please, i just upgraded to version 3.08 and nothing but it did upgrade, when i try to install the same version and i use the option to keep my DB, the problem appears again saying that theres slight problem with the database.

i dont what to do i dont want to erase my DB, i dont have a Backup of it.
i can back it up thrue my host and i try it today, but a bunch of problems where drop on the screen

Step 2) Connect to the database

Attempting to attach to database

Connection succeeded! The database already exists.

Do you wish to empty your database?

i choose not to empty my DB and these is what i get, again as if i want to login
