Help!

I was installing the phpbb, and did everything needed. And this comes up, what is this?

Here it is:
Warning: mysql_pconnect() [function.mysql-pconnect]: Access denied for user 'hprp'@'localhost' (using password: NO) in /home/hprp/public_html/admin/modules.php on line 293

Warning: mysql_error(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /home/hprp/public_html/admin/modules.php on line 296
Module error: ModuleCompareDatabases error: mysql_pconnect

It seems you are not using a valid user name in the Dolphin phpBB module. Try going to "manage modules" and re-configure the phpBB module, making sure that you have entered the valid details.

Also, you can search Modmysite for help on configuring the phpBB module.

It didn't work, when I re did it.

But I have a question. When you actomatically make a phpbb forum on Fantastico. What is the normal password they use. Because they use the user phpb1 and what not.

Hi,

There have been some posts about having to adjust the code in the phpbb.aemodule to support the database username / password information correctly. Check the module - you may want to do this in phpmyadmin - the connect entry - and confirm/add in your DB access info in there manually.

Check this thread:
AEDating phpBB mod not showing up/pconnect issue

As for using a Fantastico generated phpBB - this is perhaps OK - but remember - you still need to add the "no user registration mod" to phpBB and/or disable registrations.

The one problem with a Fantastico generated phpBB is that the db module, and aemodule.php, expects phpBB be located in /forum - if your Fantastico generated phpBB is in a different place - you will have to deal with this.

Also - is the Fantastico generated phpBB giving you the latest phpBB code or is the Fantastico generated phpBB one or several revsions behind the current release? I would check that if I were you.

K, I changed some stuff. And I believe i'm alittle bit father. This comes up now:

Module error: ModuleCompareDatabases error: mysql_query(SELECT `username`, `user_email` FROM users) Table 'hprp_phpb1.users' doesn't exist

What does that mean?

[Smoge]

Hi,

I replied to this in an email also .... check your hprp_phpb1 database - see if it is loaded/populated correctly - is there a users table? Is there a users table, but with a prefix, but the module code is not calling it with a prefix?

Yes there is. That's why I don't get what is wrong..
