Re: Question on Database

If the database is actually running, you should be able to do mysqldump to get the SQL you are missing... The errors you are getting are a result of bad code -- You should have some code like: mysql_query($query) or error_log(__FILE__ . ' ' . __LINE__ ': ' . mysql_errormessage()); (All one line) The point is to *NOT* spew out error messages to the browser which reveal far too much about your server to potential hackers. So the errors will be logged in your error_log file of Apache. Or, you could use more arguments to http://php.net/error_log to lot it anywhere you like. At a guess, I'm supposing that the MySQL server is not starting up. -- WARNING richard@zend.com address is an endangered species -- Use ceo@l-i-e.com Wanna help me out? Like Music?
