PC101.com has issues...

[Lyte]

I had someone install a skin on mysite PC101.com and from the start I started getting these error messages...

Database error in vBulletin :
mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)
/home/pc101/public_html/includes/class_core.php on line 273
MySQL Error :
Error Number :
Date : Sunday, November 13th 2005 @ 05:50:24 AM
Script : http://www.pc101.com/archive/index.php?f-41.html
Referrer :
IP Address : xx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Username :
Classname : vb_database

I got like 60 of them! That was two days ago.

TODAY...

I just tried clicking on my links at the site and got some white page telling me there was a database error and to "click here" to contact administrator. I got that same error page when trying to log in! When I went to the site's email I found I had another 20+ error messages (like the one below) and they appear to be just from my clicking around on the links this morning. Here's one, just from trying to log in...

Database error in vBulletin :
mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (111)
/home/pc101/public_html/includes/class_core.php on line 273
MySQL Error :
Error Number :
Date : Tuesday, November 15th 2005 @ 11:48:05 AM
Script : http://www.pc101.com/login.php
Referrer : http://www.pc101.com/
IP Address : xx.xx.xx.xx
Username :
Classname : vb_database

The install guy says it has to be with my server/hosting company but they say it's something the install guy did ... something having to do with "line 273." I'm feelin' a lil desperate here cuz I don't know enough about VB, HTML or servers to know what's what and what's wrong and who did it!

I'd really appreicate some assistance with these error messages.

Many thanks in advance!

You are going to have to contact your host. As these errors are called my improper configuration of MySql Database on the entire server.

OR...

You will have to verify your connection settings. I see your username field is empty. Please verify everything is there. Try reinstalling VB.

Okay, it's happening again right now!

It says...

There seems to have been a problem with the database.
Please try again by clicking the Refresh button in your web browser.

An E-Mail has been dispatched to our Technical Staff, whom you can also contact if the problem persists.

We apologise for any inconvenience.

And then there are links to for Refresh (the site addy) and for Technical Staff (email for PC101.com).

Is this happening to anyone else???

Hey iNod,

Thanks for responding!

What do you mean "username field is empty" and "connection settings?" Which connections?
