I did have a look at the eeror messages but no help
This is the error i get :
MyBB has experienced an internal error and cannot continue.
Error Type:
MyBB Error (44)
Error Message:
MyBB was unable to load the SQL extension. Please contact the MyBB Group for support. MyBB Website
Everything is uploaded fine but i dont get what it mean by sql extension.

In inc/config.php try changing db type to mqsqli if it is set to mysql or vice verse.

From the Wiki:

Quote:Information: This occurs when the database type is incorrect in ./inc/config.php. To fix this, open ./inc/config.php and check the entry for $config['database']['type']. A common issue is having 'mysql' instead of 'mysqli', or having 'mysqli' instead of 'mysql'. If you do not know what needs to be here, contact your host provider.

I noticed it had the I at the end and im like. Hmm maybe I should try it without that I. But then I was like no it worked before. Ugh. Well this fixed it, thanks bunches!
