phpBB : Critical Error

Could not connect to the database

ive deleted and retried but still cant fig out what ive done wrong. any help?

It looks like you are not connecting to the database.

You could be getting either the database name, username, or both incorrect.

1. Make sure you have a database.

Im not sure about those who host their own, but if your site is hosted somewhere else, the database name, and username start with your username at your host.


So if your username with your host is hostusername, and you chose database1 for the name of your database with the username dbuser then your info would go in as follows.

Name of Database: hostusername_database1
Database Username: hostusername_dbuser


Then your password is how you chose it when the db was setup.


Hope this helps... <img>

so it looks ok but i still cant access integra - just the phpbb forum

Basically, you already have tables with the same name in your database that you are trying to put in there.

If you dont want the other forum in your database, then you should go into phpMyAdmin , select your database, and drop all the phpBB tables in it.



If you do want the forum, then you can just change the prefix when you run your Integramod install from phpbb_ to integramod_ or whatever you would like.

I would recommend putting the _ at the end of whatever you chose, it is not necessary, but it does help if you ever need to edit you database tables.

ok now we're getting places when i enter the site url on browser i get:

Index of /

integra/ 04-Sep-2006 20:29 -


so how do i now get into site to set up on acp i tried the .htaccess and creating an index.html file too but obviously im missing something

whats your url?
is this the site your working on?
http://www.twitchy.co.uk/integra/portal.php

if so its working for me

Did you get it to install correctly???

Did you delete anything besides the install, and the install prill directories???

Did your config.php set up correctly???

Make sure your index.php is in the directory.

Also, if your .htaccess isnt configured properly, it could make your site not work, try taking that out until you get things working.

Lol, I saw that too, but that doesnt look like a recent fresh install.

no thats my own one I'm now trying to set one up for my hubby at http://www.dayfc.com lol

Its acting like your files arent there.
Did you delete them, have them in a different directory maybe???

the config.php is empty because it is asking for Install/install.php

the config.php is empty because it is asking for Install/install.php

how would i sort this out?

well it appears that your file structure is not correct. normaly, if you chmod your config.php to 666 then run the install the file is automaticly updated with your db info. Since this has not been done, im curious where your install folder is? If you already deleted it, then i would assume youve run the install and it told you to do so, and the reason your config is empty is that it was not chmodded?

If this is a new forum on a fresh db. I would drop all db tables so you have an empty db. Double check all your chmods. and run the install again. If your still having troubles, pm me.
