MyBB has experienced an internal SQL error and cannot continue.

You need to backup your old database and import it into your new database.

Server transfer :

Upload backup of files to new host.

Import backup of database into new database in phpmyadmin.

Open up inc/config.php and change the database settings into the correct new ones.

Open up inc/settings.php and change bburl and cookiedomain if your domain changed too.

Then go into ACP and change the values to the correct ones in configuration.

That should do it.

That error is caused because your database settings are incorrect in ./inc/config.php
