What i've done is use SQLyog to do a complete back up of the database

can i now restore this using SSH / telenet on my new server (as my new server allows me to use SSH/telenet)?

[mondaynightmike]

Hello thanks for that. I'll give the PHP my admin a go / backed up via admin CP, if this does fail then i'll have to get SSH permission or telenet permission.

I'll let you know how it goes...

Hello i've searched and found a few topics but none seem to answer my question.

I'm moving to a differnet host and i would like to transfer my forums.


Do i need to...

[mondaynightmike]

Thanks for your fast and helpful reply.

It found the error and fixed it.

[mondaynightmike]

I've no idea what is going on but recently within the past few days i have had a load of e-mails saying there is a problem with the database.

Anyway the problem is when you post you get...

[mondaynightmike]

thanks. Now i just need to get permission from 34sp.com to run these as i have no access to it :@

[mondaynightmike]

Tried that but this would not allow the database to work. The password which changed was the FTP password. I'll try putting it back to the original and seeing if that works. If not then it must be the...

Hi guys. I changed the database password today and since i have done this i have had problems uploading attachments.

got messages like:

Just wondering if you prefer to have one Main style or if you like to have a number fo Styles a user can use.

I have a range of style sinstalled at the moment, and i quite like it because...

[mondaynightmike]

Nope the counter is still there!

Oh well wierd

If this problem happens again when i install VB3 it should fix it as it would be a clean install right?

[mondaynightmike]

I think it might be to do with the fact that i have recently included a counter on the page. I never had this problem before. Its only when you said forumhome that it clicked. I will give it a go without...

[mondaynightmike]

Sorry about i had a bit of trouble earlier on so i blocked them from seeing. IF you would be kind enough to check to see if happens to you i would be greatful.

[mondaynightmike]

ok. The server i use is mother.34sp.com they are on USA time, so in the admin CP should i set the Vbulletin time to USA time or keep it at GMT time. although it could be the catched page thing you say...

[mondaynightmike]

I dont' log out thats the thing. I might not have made it clear. At the bottom of the page it says what time it is. I will click on one forum and it will say 11pm next it will jump and say 8am and the...

[mondaynightmike]

Hello just a quick question. Would anyone know why my forums are doing this:

When i visit them sometimes the time will say GMT time then i might refresh the page and it will have jumped...

[mondaynightmike]

to be honest Vbulletin is as just the right price. I think you get a bargain to be honest. I was not to sure on getting it at first, so i set up a Exboard account, BIG BIG Mistake, moved straight to Vbulletin....

[mondaynightmike]

I wish i knew. Its mainly near grand prix's the forums just go hyper, but its running smoothly now so i can't complain.
I suppose the main thing is you enjoy it.

[mondaynightmike]

Thats a super idea. So i suppose you should include something [if there is not something already] in the liscence agreement right?

[mondaynightmike]

My forums have only [within 2 weeks] shot up from 50 memebers to 104!

Its good to see i am not the only one with a small VB board as most i go to have like 200+ members 10000+ posts etc.....
