Upgrade to V9.6. Set up page did not load.

I have just upgraded from 9.5 to 9.6. Had run the upgrade on my local server to test changes to files for my skin. All okay.

Just uploaded all files to the servers (Web Wiz). I had locked down the forum and ran a backup. Deleted all file (except upload) and loaded all 9.6 files. Still had admin open (not that it would have mattered) except that there was probably an active session.

Point browser at domain/forum and got the server error for access to the DB as the DB connection was still set to my Localhost. Fixed the file but what I did was to manually change the connection data which what I now suppose I should have done was to set all to "". Actually went back and did that ("") but got a cant connect error. Changed back to DB connect data.

I never got the setup page and the site loaded and appears to be okay but I'm not sure if the DB has now been upgraded. Have posted a support ticket but probably should have posted here first.

Is there some way I can check if the DB was updated?

Thanks Bruce. I thought that was the problem. Just wanted to be sure. I had filled in a support ticket before posting here.

Everything should be okay then.
