[solved] nothing in mysql... so weird...

Post by .g@sp. »

hi
i'm running s9y 0.9.1, it was there "by default" with my hosting at OVH.
there is also a forum "by default"
both are using the same DB, with different prefix
but when i go to the phpmyadmin, all tables with serendipity are empty (in serendipity_authors, there is only me, although there is 4 others authors)

what's that strange thing ??? :shock:

where are stored my data ?? :|

(i imagine it's a stupid question, but i really don't understand)

thanks

Hi!

Are you able to FTP to your serendipity directory? If so, check out the serendipity_config_local.inc.php file. If you can't read it, checkout our FAQ and look for the fixperm.php sample code.

HTH,

ok i've changed those infos to "real" things, but it completely ruins my blog...
i've a long error message that ends by :
/ Table 'defactoa_ovh.serendipity_authorgroups' doesn't exist

(when the dbname is defactoa it works, but in phpmyadmin it's defactoa_ovh so i've changed that, and the dbuser and password... what gave me this error)

Hi!

Well, then the "other" empty installation you have is not the one that is being used. Simple as that. Maybe you created the tables yourself, or they were from a faulty installation. :-)

Regards,
