v3rax Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 Hypothetical Situation: I have my primary domain as www.bob.com. I set up a website in the root directory of www.bob.com. Obviously www.bob.com has its own MYSQL database. Next, I add a "folder" via FTP to www.bob.com so that I can upload a "forum software" I call this folder "forum" and upload "SMF Forum" software to this folder. I then create a new MYSQL database for the forum. I run the "install.php" for the forum and it begins working under the URL, www.bob.com/forum. All is well, then..... Next, I decide I do not want this forum anymore so I delete the files AND I delete the MYSQL database. www.bob.com still runs fine but every once in a while I get an email telling me there was a MYSQL error because the forum database is no longer there. Now, I am assuming that the database for www.bob.com is tryng to access the databse for the "forum" but since it is not there anymore I get the error message. Is there any way to edit the database for www.bob.com so it doesnt try to access a database that is no longer there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
