There seems to have been a slight problem with the database. Please try again by pressing the refresh button in your browser.

An E-Mail has been dispatched to our Technical Staff, who you can also contact if the problem persists.

We apologise for any inconvenience.

I'll post the config below.

<?php

// only mysql is supported at the moment
$dbservertype="mysql";
// hostname or ip of server
$servername="db.matrixc.f2s.com";
// username and password to log onto db server
$dbusername="devilman";
$dbpassword="poser";
// name of database
$dbname="devilman";

//password for control panel
$cppassword="poser";

?>

This isn't exactly going to help you but..... I am getting the EXACT same error messages as you are with the Lite version (I am also trying to set it up on f2s).

Pleeease help :)

ryanpark888: I found this fix under one of the other threads. This did the trick for me as far as getting the lite version working on f2s.

Good Luck


If you're installing freeware version replace
global $DB_site
with
global $DB_site;
in global.php3

Didnt work

Didnt work illg et it to work just will take a bit of coaxing.

Some of the servers there at f2s don't have mysql installed on them... only some of them...

The best bet would be is to go to the forum there at f2s and ask them which servers have mysql installed....and they'll tell you.....

you may just be on a server that doesn't have it installed... *shrug*
