Hi Stan.

The back-up was from the last version of PHPBBXS.

Guys at phpbbXS i need your help with this because the error seems to be coming from phpbbXS

I was uploading one of the mysql backups Claire had made and it was appx 30 MB, once it was done about 20 min, it said "phpbb_album" was not found so i took a look at the mysql tables and i found "INSERT phpbb_album" and many other tables like those and it shows clearly it is inserting the album tables, however it keeps saying that error. My doubts are either Claire was using a old version of phpbbXs but she said it was the latest version so never mind that, or it could be that the other phpbbXs was custom modded which i doubt since Claire seems to be a person of "just install & use".

Anyhow does anyone have a clue what the problem could be? I tried then creating a mysql user and connecting it with her other mysql database it connected perfectly but it said "ERROR GENERATING NEW SESSIONS from session.php" so i chmodded session.php to 777, still nothing, something seems to be wrong...

any help?

Claire had a lot of problems with her old board. Some of them might be Database related. She had the modding done by someone else who might not have done it correctly. Then after the update she ran into alot of problems.
It is possible, that the database is corrupt.

Yep I agree Tom and now having gone since Wednesday morning UK time with no forum. I just want the damn thing installed. I was paying someone but he has disappeared. How dare he have a life.

Default board language: English
Database Type:
Choose your installation method: Install
Database Configuration
Database Server Hostname / DSN:
Your Database Name:
Database Username:
Database Password:
Prefix for tables in database:
Admin Configuration
Admin Email Address:
Domain Name:
Server Port:
Script path:
Administrator Username:
Administrator Password:
Administrator Password [ Confirm ]:

I know a few but what do I put as the domain name? www.chatterz.co.uk or chatterz.co.uk?

Where can I find the other points that I need to fill in please?

Hard to follow you through so many 3ds...

For other data, such as Database ones you have to ask your host...

3ds?

Yes I am emailing them now. Have to go out now though. Hopefully I'll have my forum back later or sometime this century.
