 Topic: 9.54 Cock Up!! (My fault)
Posted: 06 December 2008 at 9:51am |
Hi everyone.
Tried to install it for my sites, room327.biz and room327.biz/ibiza and have completely messed it up.
the .biz/ibiza is ok as I havent touched that one, but the .biz one has disappeared and been replaced by the /ibiza one (anyone confused?) Now I have 2 /ibiza sites!!
I think I know what I have done wrong as I copied the database connection asp from my ibiza forum to the other one which is why it is duplicating.
So in order to avoid confusion for my members, I have recopied a blank DBC asp on to the 'updated' site to disbable it until I can work out what the hell I can do to fix it!!

If you have two forums on the same domain name you will need to change the Cookie prefix and the Application Prefix so that the two forums are not shared. to do this go to "includes/setup_options_inc.asp" and change the following lines:
Const strCookiePrefix = "WWF9" |
Const strAppPrefix = "WWF9" |
You may also want to look through and see if theres anything else you'd like to change/customise - though if you dont know what the other options do - best to leave them alone.

I'd thought of that but I dont know that name of the other database, there are supposed to be 2 but can only find reference to one in my helm.

I checked your solution Scotty, and the code is the same, I did not need to change anything.

I have looked in my helm and I THINK the problem is where one forum is setup on mssql.webwiz.net
and the other is on
mysql.webwiz.net
I know the difference between the 2, but, when I change the variable in the DBC asp the original problem remains unchanged, I still get the ibiza site appearing at both addresses.

If you have 2 separate databases then you would like have different usernames, logins for each. I think you will need to check your settings on both files and make sure the correct settings are in the database_connection.asp files for the relevant database, since your room327biz is displaying the following error:
Server Error in Forum Application
An error has occurred while connecting to the database.
Please contact the forum administrator.
Support Error Code:- err_SQLServer_db_connection
File Name:- common.asp
Error details:-
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server
Invalid authorization specification

Essentially, I think that the only difference between the 2 DBC asps were the 2 I have mentioned in my previous posts, I changed those, unfortunately there has been no effect and my ibiza forum was showing on both, which is why I removed the info from the 327.biz dbc asp
