My b2evolution Version: Not Entered

Hi all,

All of a sudden I have a problem accessing my blog (www.businessandculture.org/cultureblog).

I get the following message: (Can't connect to MySQL server on 'mysql17.servage.net' (4))

Don't know where it comes from either.

I also cannot access any admin.php either :(

How do I go about this?

It's been sooo long since I've done anything with this that I dont know wich version software I'm using. It's 1.x or later... (sorry)

thx
Chris

If you haven't changed anything then I suggest you email your host ;)

I've done that.
Should I still not be able to get into the admin screen?

Thx

Tad hard for admin to check your session in a database that's not there ;)

my host assures me the database is ok.
I can see it aswell (and settings) in my CP.

So the DB is there, how do I get to the admin screen?

thx

I have another question with this:

Which file (within b2e) holds the settings (i.e. of my database name/psw/id etc.)?

I cannot seem to find that either...

If it is in a sub dir, could you please add that info to.

thx

Your database connection details are in /conf/_basic_config.php

Hi all,

I've checked all my settings in the config.php file, and they all seem to be ok.

What could be a next step that I can take?
re-run the install script? if I do that will it destroy the database? media file?

My host tells me to check the .htaccess file. I'm not sure what that is, I do not see this file in my blog directory.
To my knowledge I've never used .htaccess either.

would really appreciate the help!

thx
Chris

You need to ask your host what changes they made between your blog being able to connect to the database and not being able to connect to the database ;)

Hi all,

Indeed my ISP made some changes (?) and all works well now. Thanks for your help and patience.
