fenway Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Simply creating the table won't solve your problem... a missing table likely has missing data. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dannyb785 Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 login details? as in, username and password? not a good idea. Does your provider have phpmyadmin? It's pretty simple to create and edit tables with it. Obviously you havent created a table with that [horrid] name. Remember, table names are case-sensitive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dannyb785 Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 When you create a table, you have to have a "user" to access it. My hosting provider makes me create a user before creating a table. You have to create one and assign it permissions on the table(select, alter, etc) and what are you naming the table? if it says 'devilon-1913195.4images_categories' doesnt exist then you are doing some query trying to access a table with that name. If your table has a different name(which it likely does, if it exists at all), search your php code for any/every instance of 'devilon-1913195.4images_categories' and replace it with your table's name.

Its all good I emailed my host and they had stopped editing on sites as they where updating... thank you so much for explaining it all.

ober Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 That's about enough. Fenway was simply stating that if you're so eager to hand over your details, you probably didn't build it yourself. It's a fair enough statement without knowing more about you. Attacking a global mod and using language to stoop to an even lower level will get you nowhere around here.

I'm glad you've enjoyed your opportunity to rant; and you did report the post anyway, contrary to your statement above. I definitely had enough info -- you posted an error message that you didn't write, you were willing to give someone else access to your site to fix it, and you had a set-up where someone else can determine which tables your users have access to. Result = you're not in control. Which means there's no way to know what's wrong without additional information -- which you never provided. You never indicated if the site was working fine at any point in time, so it wasn't clear if this was a typo, a corrupt DB, a change in permissions, etc. If asking questions to make you think about *your* problem is being disrespectful, well... but since you're so quick to judge after being part of this forum for <24 hours, I'll be certain to keep your nickname blacklisted so that you don't get any of my "help" again. Doesn't matter to me. I'll unlock this topic briefly so that you don't feel slighted at the thought of not being able to respond (now that doesn't sound disrespectful, does it?) -- but tread carefully. I'm sure one of the other mods will be more than happy to re-lock it if things get out of hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fenway Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Perhaps if I had said "Is this problem your site is experiencing new, or is this a new setup?" instead of "Clearly someone else has set up this site for you... has it ever worked?" Then no feathers would have been ruflled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
