Just out of curiosity, does anyone know why multiple forums on the same website share settings? With two different hosts, i'm getting this error. it's almost like they have configured a dynamic DSN and the DNS is getting applied to each forum using the same database, but some of the settings are different.

For extra performance web wiz forums uses the web servers memory to cache common database queries.

If you want to run two copies of web wiz forums on the same web site you need to edit the file 'includes/setup_options.asp' with notepad, and change the application variable prefix for one of your forums.
