2,403 Server errors in Google webmaster tools

[AnatoliyOFF]

All of the links look like this: usertag.php?do=list&action=tags&t=xxxx where xxxx is a number. When I follow the link I get a "Database error" message in my browser.
Please let me know how should I fix this. Thanks in advance.

We would need to know what the actual database error is.

Thannk you, Mark, for a quick responce. In google webmaster tools it says error code 503 for all the links. In a browser I can see just a standard words:

That's coming from an addon....

Try disabling it in the admincp product screen.

Actually I uninstalled Dragonbyte Tech User Tagging plugin couple monthes ago. But I had active Dragonbyte Tech Thanks/Like plugin. I disabled it, but it didn't help, so I uninstalled it but it also didn't help. I checked and I still get db error message in a browser. Here is what I got in email:
Database error in vBulletin 4.2.3: Invalid SQL: SELECT languageid, phrasegroup_global AS phrasegroup_global, phrasegroup_dbtech_usertag AS phrasegroup_dbtech_usertag, phrasegroup_user AS phrasegroup_user, phrasegroup_posting AS phrasegroup_posting, phrasegroup_album AS phrasegroup_album, phrasegroup_messaging AS phrasegroup_messaging, phrasegroupinfo AS lang_phrasegroupinfo, options AS lang_options, languagecode AS lang_code, charset AS lang_charset, locale AS lang_locale, imagesoverride AS lang_imagesoverride, dateoverride AS lang_dateoverride, timeoverride AS lang_timeoverride, registereddateoverride AS lang_registereddateoverride, calformat1override AS lang_calformat1override, calformat2override AS lang_calformat2override, logdateoverride AS lang_logdateoverride, decimalsep AS lang_decimalsep, thousandsep AS lang_thousandsep FROM language WHERE languageid = 1; MySQL Error : Unknown column 'phrasegroup_dbtech_usertag' in 'field list' Error Number : 1054 Request Date : Monday, June 20th 2016 @ 07:31:30 AM Error Date : Monday, June 20th 2016 @ 07:31:30 AM Script : http://www.oregonfishingforum.com/us...on=tags&t=9579 Referrer : IP Address : 66.249.65.124 Username : Classname : vB_Database MySQL Version : Did Drugonbites plugin after uninstull left a column in a table, that creates a db error?

[AnatoliyOFF]

I guess I understend. )
That usertag.php is not a file from VBulletin but from Drugontech plugin. So I can delete this file from my server and it will not crash vbulletin work. Please confirm.

If the addon has been uninstalled, you can delete its files. You should contact Dragonbyte Tech for additional support.

[AnatoliyOFF]

Thank you! I deleted the file and my forum still works. ) I'm sorry that I didn't look in the code of the file before I sturted this topic and disturbed you regarding the problem that was created by Dragontech not VBulletin. Thank you for your help one more time.

Now I have a question regarding a similar issue related to VBulletin file attachment.php. The next biggest issue in google webmasters tools I can see is about 600+ "soft 404 errors" (page is not found but server doesn'r return 404 code). About 200+ links look like attachment.php?attachmentid=xxxx where xxxx is a number. When I follow those links I get a VBulletin page with the "Invalid Attachment specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator" message.

Several years ago I lost a bunch of attachments when I moved from one server to another. Please give me an advice how should I fix this issue?

[Wayne Luke]

I answered your 404 question in your other thread. Short answer is soft-deleted threads return 403 and permanently deleted threads return 404.

Yes, thank you. I guess I got the answer to my question and now I have the idea how to fix my problems - to upgrate to VB5. You could probably close this thread. I have some more questions about VB5 before I'll become ready to pay, but I'll ask them in that VB5 thread.
