Database errors

[Bluefin221]

I'm receiving a constant stream of database errors and I'm wondering how I can get rid of them, today when I woke up there was over 700 error reports into my inbox from two sources.

Database error in vBulletin 4.0.5:

The first one is from vbtube which was a 3.x addon and the second vbanonymizer again a 3.x addon, vbanonymizer the links on my forum as shown above still trying to convert the links so that they are anonymous I don't know how to convert them back.

Can anyone help with this or give tips I'm getting tons of these mails a day.

This is one reason I always tell people to completely uninstall 3.x mods before upgrading to vb4. They won't work, and they can only cause trouble.

I did uninstall them, I still get the errors - the first one vbanonymizer all the links in my forum are still pointing towards being anonymous so none work and throw up this error I have no idea how to convert them.

The second one I believe is coming from search engines as none of the videos were linked on my site.

When you uninstalled the mods, did you delete all their files too?

[Videx]

Right. Uninstalling isn't just a matter of hitting the 'uninstall' button. Once you're sure you've gotten rid of the old files, then you can start troubleshooting.

If the one mod left a bunch of malformed links, they shouldn't generate a mysql error, though they won't work. But that could be fixed with a query or search and replace.

[Bluefin221]

database errors are clear, thanks guys I hadn't been removing files just uninstalling. I still have the issue whereby my links are still trying to use vbanonymizer.

If the mod or author is still around there should be an upgrade path. I know with one of my mods - AME I think - the author wrote a small app that updated all the previous links to work with the vb4 version of the mod.

I can't find a vb4 version of the mod unfortunately.

Can you post a link to the 3x version of the mod?
