disturbed Posted October 30, 2004 CID Share Posted October 30, 2004 I've been having problems with my website....this is what Im getting when I try accessing the forums: i've received the following error that stopped me from accessing the phpbb forums: Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) in /home/escustom/public_html/azpocbb/db/mysql4.php on line 48 Warning: mysql_error(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /home/escustom/public_html/azpocbb/db/mysql4.php on line 330 Warning: mysql_errno(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /home/escustom/public_html/azpocbb/db/mysql4.php on line 331 phpBB : Critical Error Could not connect to the database I do not know much about php or the mysql databases...any help is appreciated....i think it is a problem somewhat related to sql server, since i tried doing a fresh installation of phpbb and was getting the same error while updating the config.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PeePs Posted November 1, 2004 CID Share Posted November 1, 2004 Is this on a dedicated web host, or just a machine you have at your house? I don't know much about PHP and MySQL either, but here is my unknowledgable response! Make sure you have a database available for you to use. (when i first got my website it tried setting up forums and i think i got that error and it was because they haden't set up my MySQL and PHP yet.) Yeah, im not much help lol. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
