We've just moved our MSSQL DB from a shared server (where we were having issues), locally onto our own dedicated webserver and go it running in the MSSQL Server Express 2005 jobbie.
Now our host did the whole of this move for us and it's been a week of sorting out errors (mostly linked to DB table values AFAIK). We finally got it all sorted and for our members in the front of the forums, all is well
Yesterday I started checking things were all good in the back of house and through the Admin Panel.
They're not LOL.
In a nut, I made a change to the title of one of our forum sections and after clicking OK to save the change, it threw a standard page not found webby error. The change did actually happen but after doing that, the section I changed the name of, has now become invisible to the 4 of us in the Admin Group! It's not there on the forums default page anymore. I can confirm it is visible to every other member group, just not us in the Admin Group.
I am also unable to create additional forum sections, after doing so it just takes me to a "page not found" error etc
Also in the Admin section, if I try to make any changes to member permissions, either individual or at group level.. Again it throws a page not found error.
There are however tasks I can do in the Admin Section (add new members / change member groups / resync forums / move or delete threads etc etc)
I'm no MSSQL wizard or anything but as far as I can tell, this page not found error that keeps popping up when I do anything to amend or create forum sections and the same with any member permissions.. Must surely be linked to a table in the MSSQL DB? It is only the Admin Group that is effected and as mentioned, we can't see one of the forum sections anymore.
Any ideas please guys? Our host has been good when sorting out all these errors after we relocated the DB, this is the last outstanding issues (and we've had a lot), so I'm just fishing for info to assist our host, so he knows where he's got to look.
Many thanks and take care,
Shaun
