    Database Error

    I'm getting database errors on one of my vbulletin forums (version 3.6.5) - usually when a search like "find all posts by user" is attempted.

    Is this more likely a vbulletin problem or a problem with my database/host?

    (PM me for website URL if you would like to help me troubleshoot)

    THANKS!

    a full error message would help database errors can have different causes it can be an issue with your host but it can also be an issue with a plugin you installed etc etc when a database error occours vBulletin displays an errormessage post it and you will get an answer on howto get around
