MyBB Community Forums

Hello

I tried to transfer my forum into a new host but I get this:

MyBB SQL Error
MyBB has experienced an internal SQL error and cannot continue.

SQL Error:
1044 - Access denied for user 'premyou_wassim'@'localhost' to database 'premyou_wassim'
Query:
[READ] Unable to select database

I used This tutorial to change the host.

Please help

Did you follow this part of the tutorial:

-

Step 2

Download all of your forum files, download the WHOLE forum folder to your computer in your FTP Client.
Go into your new hosting control panel and create a mysql database and user.
Now open /inc/config.php and change it to your new host mysql database information you just created.

Note: only change the following lines:

$config['hostname'] = ' ';
$config['username'] = ' ';
$config['password'] = ' ';
$config['database'] = ' ';
$config['table_prefix'] = 'mybb_';

Now edit /inc/settings.php and edit the settings.


Once you have edited the files, save them and upload your forum folder to your new host using a FTP client.

Also, where/when did you see the error?

Are you sure that you've placed all the database information correctly? Try checking the password again.

I follow all the steps, I get the error when I go to my forum url: http://www.premium4you.org

Ah, make sure that the user is allowed full permissions for that database.

If you use cPanel..

Find this button:


Click on it and go to the part that says Add User To Database. Make sure the user you made is added to the database you created AND that it has full permissions.

-

Also, verify that ALL of the database information is correct.

Head over to your MySQL manager and check the user privileges of premyou_wassim.
