Database Connection

[edxb]

Hi there,

how to connect a new fresh installed forum 1.3.1 with an old database full with data?

another question .. where can i download the IPDynamic.

thank you, :D

1) you need to export your database and then import it back into the new invision board. You cna use the tool I have attached to this post to do jus tthat. I did not create or find the tool, it was given to me by a fellow Neowinian.

2) IPDynamic Lite is included in the invision board download

No problem. All should work well. If not, report back here and, if I can't help you, one of the other brilliant minds of Neowin will be glad to.

Working fine now...

I called my host in the US and they were great deleted the file for me because I was getting error 550 for some reason when the permissions were set correctly... I have it uploaded and working fine now... now time for a little tweaking here and there...

Still not sure what was causing the CHMOD problems... and to be honest I don't think I will...

One reason could have been the forum folder was corrupt...? :blush:

It's not that easy these days to find a community forum which help other people with their day-to-day needs and problems... :D

Thanks for you support...

You haven't yet been to http://forums.ipbhelpers.com/, have you? :)

Awesome and fast support for a free service! They even install the board/mods etc for you if you can't figure it out.

hi there,

that sure is a nice site but neowin has added these boards for a reason. we are to help people out with their problems and it would be idiotic send them somewhere else. ;)
