Hello,

I know our Board has not seen the best of days over the past month or so. We tried to install Mkportal on our Board last night... accidentally, the config.php file was deleted and there is no way to restore it. By the way, I am using PhpBB 2.x

I found a possible solution here:
http://www.phpbb.com/kb/article.php?article_id=48

Well, I am labeled a complete newbie to this whole php and mysql thing.

If you could please take a look at that link it would be great.

I think I am using mysql 4.x so I typed in mysql4 in the appropriate location in the newly-made config.php file... along with account info and such.

On the 2 db ones (dbname & dbhost), i did not know what to do.

Well here is my error displayed on every page on my Board...


Warning: mysql_error(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /home/vigilant/public_html/board/db/mysql4.php on line 330

Warning: mysql_errno(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /home/vigilant/public_html/board/db/mysql4.php on line 331
phpBB : Critical Error

Could not connect to the database

And here are line 330 and 331 of that file:


Any help appreciated ASAP, as I do not want to go another step further until I get "expert advice"--compared to my lack of knowledge.

Thanks.

phpbb2_ delivers the same error... But have a look at http://www.vigilantweather.com/board for the current setting which is phpbb_ for the prefix.

It is "there", but with quite a long list of errors at the top. Any ideas?

Thanks.

You may delete this since I cannot... It has been resolved
