Hi
i made an update of s9y, and i thought it wasn't working, so i asked my webhoster to do a reset of my db.
Now i wonder how i can change my db informations on s9y, because i cannot access to my blog, i have this error message

Code: Select all

Warning: mysql_connect(): Access denied for user: 'defactoa_ovh@10.0.17.107' (Using password: YES) in /home/defactoa/www/blog/include/db/mysql.inc.php on line 156

Warning: mysql_select_db(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) in /home/defactoa/www/blog/include/db/mysql.inc.php on line 157

Warning: mysql_select_db(): A link to the server could not be established in /home/defactoa/www/blog/include/db/mysql.inc.php on line 157
DATABASE_ERROR
where can i do the update ??

Thanks (and sorry for my poor english)

I think you've made that question in another thread, were I've already replied.

It seems you have changed your MySQL password and did not change it in your serendipity installation. The database credentials are saved in the file "serendipity_config_local.inc.php" where you need to enter the right password/username.

If you cannot edit that file, look at our FAQ and search for "fixperm".

Best regards

ok thank you, now i can access my blog, but i've another problem, that appeared after i did the update to the 0.9 version.

i got this message :

/ Table 'defactoa_ovh.serendipity_authorgroups' doesn't exist

after a "query failed" SELECT (blablabla) FROM (blablabla)

would it be possible to reset the blog and configure it from the beginning ?

i imagine i juste have to delete the "blog" folder and upload a new one from my computer ?

Thank you

It seems you did not properly upgrade. Please read our FAQ on how to process in this case.
