My account was suspended and I wasn't able to deactivate my plugins but I managed to get sql and database and file backups. I'll be moving from www.thehdforums.co.cc to www.thehdforums.tk

From b13_6467015_thdforums to hdhos_6767059_thdforums database

What will I do to make it still work?
Upload files to new host, create database on new host, import backup to new host, edit new database details into ./inc/config.php, edit your Board URL and cookie settings in ./inc/settings.php, then save them again in the ACP.
It says this

MyBB has experienced an internal error and cannot continue.

Error Type:
MyBB Error (42)
Error Message:
Your board has not yet been upgraded. Please do so before attempting to browse it.
Are you using 1.6 files and a 1.6 database...??
Yah, I'm still uploading the files when I browsed it.
Might be a good idea to wait until everything's uploaded before trying to browse it... Wink
If it doesn't go well, would you help me?
Yes, but there's literally nothing that can go badly wrong if you have a file and database backup.
I'm done uploading but it still says the same thing
Either your database details are missing in config.php, or you're missing a cache of pervious versions. If you've copied your files and database across directly you shouldn't be getting this...
