Problema al instalar vbulletin

[el_cesar]

Saludos,

tengo un problema al instalar vbulletin en mi host, resulta que modifco toda la info del config.php pero cuando lo corro me dice "The database has encountered a problem."

tengo una sospecha que el problema es en esta parte

// ****** MASTER DATABASE SERVER NAME AND PORT ******
// This is the hostname or IP address and port of the database server.
// If you are unsure of what to put here, leave the default values.
$config['MasterServer']['servername'] = 'p50mysql249.secureserver.net';
$config['MasterServer']['port'] = 3306;

Pero la verdad no se, porque el por defecto viene indicado para trabajar en localhost y yo estoy usando un host de godaddy y no se si ese sea el puerto de la BD

El username y password supongo que lo pondrás bien. Para no tener que revisar todo el config te dejo un par de links que dicen como configurarlos por si acaso tienes algo mal:

mmm nada, revise todos esos enlaces y no he podido resolver mi problema, aqui pongo mi config.php para ver si me ayudan a encontrar el problema.

// ****** DATABASE TYPE ******
// This is the type of the database server on which your vBulletin database will be located.
// Valid options are mysql and mysqli, for slave support add _slave. Try to use mysqli if you are using PHP 5 and MySQL 4.1+
// for slave options just append _slave to your preferred database type.
$config['Database']['dbtype'] = 'mysql';

// ****** DATABASE NAME ******
// This is the name of the database where your vBulletin will be located.
// This must be created by your webhost.
$config['Database']['dbname'] = 'foromercadeese';

// ****** TABLE PREFIX ******
// Prefix that your vBulletin tables have in the database.
$config['Database']['tableprefix'] = '';

// ****** TECHNICAL EMAIL ADDRESS ******
// If any database errors occur, they will be emailed to the address specified here.
// Leave this blank to not send any emails when there is a database error.
$config['Database']['technicalemail'] = '[email protected]';

// ****** FORCE EMPTY SQL MODE ******
// New versions of MySQL (4.1+) have introduced some behaviors that are
// incompatible with vBulletin. Setting this value to "true" disables those
// behaviors. You only need to modify this value if vBulletin recommends it.
$config['Database']['force_sql_mode'] = false;



// ****** MASTER DATABASE SERVER NAME AND PORT ******
// This is the hostname or IP address and port of the database server.
// If you are unsure of what to put here, leave the default values.

// These must be obtained through your webhost.
$config['MasterServer']['username'] = 'foromercadeese';
$config['MasterServer']['password'] = '***********';

// ****** MASTER DATABASE PERSISTENT CONNECTIONS ******
// This option allows you to turn persistent connections to MySQL on or off.
// The difference in performance is negligible for all but the largest boards.
// If you are unsure what this should be, leave it off. (0 = off; 1 = on)
$config['MasterServer']['usepconnect'] = 0;



// ****** SLAVE DATABASE CONFIGURATION ******
// If you have multiple database backends, this is the information for your slave
// server. If you are not 100% sure you need to fill in this information,
// do not change any of the values here.

$config['SlaveServer']['username'] = '';
$config['SlaveServer']['password'] = '';

// ****** PATH TO ADMIN & MODERATOR CONTROL PANELS ******
// This setting allows you to change the name of the folders that the admin and
// moderator control panels reside in. You may wish to do this for security purposes.
// Please note that if you change the name of the directory here, you will still need
// to manually change the name of the directory on the server.

// Prefix that all vBulletin cookies will have
// Keep this short and only use numbers and letters, i.e. 1-9 and a-Z
$config['Misc']['cookieprefix'] = 'bb';

// ******** FULL PATH TO FORUMS DIRECTORY ******
// On a few systems it may be necessary to input the full path to your forums directory
// for vBulletin to function normally. You can ignore this setting unless vBulletin
// tells you to fill this in. Do not include a trailing slash!
// Example Unix:
// $config['Misc']['forumpath'] = '/home/users/public_html/forums';
// Example Win32:
// $config['Misc']['forumpath'] = 'c:\program files\apache group\apache\htdocs\vb3';

// ****** USERS WITH ADMIN LOG VIEWING PERMISSIONS ******
// The users specified here will be allowed to view the admin log in the control panel.
// Users must be specified by *ID number* here. To obtain a user's ID number,
// view their profile via the control panel. If this is a new installation, leave
// the first user created will have a user ID of 1. Seperate each userid with a comma.

// The users specified here will be allowed to remove ("prune") entries from the admin
// log. See the above entry for more information on the format.

// ****** USERS WITH QUERY RUNNING PERMISSIONS ******
// The users specified here will be allowed to run queries from the control panel.
// See the above entries for more information on the format.
// Please note that the ability to run queries is quite powerful. You may wish
// to remove all user IDs from this list for security reasons.

// The users specified here will not be deletable or alterable from the control panel by any users.
// To specify more than one user, separate userids with commas.

// ****** SUPER ADMINISTRATORS ******
// The users specified below will have permission to access the administrator permissions
// page, which controls the permissions of other administrators

// ****** DATASTORE CACHE CONFIGURATION *****
// Here you can configure different methods for caching datastore items.
// vB_Datastore_Filecache - to use includes/datastore/datastore_cache.php

// vB_Datastore_XCache - to use XCache
// vB_Datastore_Memcached - to use a Memcache server, more configuration below

// ******** DATASTORE PREFIX ******
// If you are using a PHP Caching system (APC, XCache, eAccelerator) with more
// than one set of forums installed on your host, you *may* need to use a prefix
// so that they do not try to use the same variable within the cache.
// This works in a similar manner to the database table prefix.

*/

// ****** The following options are only needed in special cases ******

// ****** MySQLI OPTIONS *****
// When using MySQL 4.1+, MySQLi should be used to connect to the database.
// If you need to set the default connection charset because your database
// is using a charset other than latin1, you can set the charset here.
// If you don't set the charset to be the same as your database, you
// may receive collation errors. Ignore this setting unless you
// are sure you need to use it.
// $config['Mysqli']['charset'] = 'utf8';

// Optionally, PHP can be instructed to set connection parameters by reading from the
// file named in 'ini_file'. Please use a full path to the file.
// Example:
// $config['Mysqli']['ini_file'] = 'c:\program files\MySQL\MySQL Server 4.1\my.ini';
$config['Mysqli']['ini_file'] = '';

// Image Processing Options
// Images that exceed either dimension below will not be resized by vBulletin. If you need to resize larger images, alter these settings.

La base de datos es de un hosting que tengo en godaddy.

y la base de datos esta en mysql 5.0

[Nekko]

Emm mirá, el nombre de la base de datos estás seguro de que es esa?

'foromercadeese';

Generalmente tienen un prefijo tipo user_foromercadeese

El nombre del servidor de godaddy doy fe que se coloca así en el config puesto que tengo un wordpress allí y no me presentó inconvenientes.

[el_cesar]

mmm si, estoy totalmente seguro que el nombre de la bd es ese, es mas para evitar problemas lo copie tal cual aparece en el panel de configuracion de godaddy

[el_cesar]

mmm nada, no me da por ningun lado, ahora elimine la base de datos y cree una nueva en version 4.1 de MySQL y da el mismo error, que puede ser esto entonces?

[Nekko]

No estás llenando este campo:

// ****** TABLE PREFIX ******
// Prefix that your vBulletin tables have in the database.
$config['Database']['tableprefix'] = '';

El nombre de la db me parece raro :(

[el_cesar]

no, ya lo solucione, era un simple problema de desconcentracion mio, resulta que estaba intentando entrar directamente al foro y no lo habia instalado jejejejejejeje que tonto soy, ahi perdonan la molestia jejee, y de verdad gracias a todos

[Nekko]

Jajaja todo bien Cesar!!! Sabés la de errores de ese tipo que cometemos a diario? Pff!!!

Exitos con tu foro!
