I'm trying to duplicate my vbulletin site so that I can test out new features properly before implementing them. So far, I've set up a new folder called 'testing' and copied in all the files I think I need, I've also duplicated the database and changed the name in config.php for the new 'testing' version.

Its currently coming up with an error of username and password not being accepted, but they are correct.

So I'm guessing that I've probably just not done it right, or indeed its not possible on the same domain as the original version?

Any advice?

You have not done it correct.

I've just tried putting the new database details into the current (working) version and it came up with the same error. So it would seem that its a database issue, right?

All I did was take a backup and then restore?

Bizzarely there does now seem to be an extra table in the new database over the original one. eh?

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

MAke sure that you have created a new MySQL user & pass, give it permission to the new database and set this user/pass in your config.php.

Cheers for your help. I've managed to get to the bottom of it.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
