It really shouldn't have taken that big of a jump. Yes, the database will be bigger but thats waytoo big.

How many posts do you have in it?

Yahoo Groups = Mailing list
phpBB = Discussion Forum

The are very different things and we have no desire to build a hybrid of them. You won't find mailing list features in phpBB anytime in the near future (or the far future as far as I'm concerned).

However, I would like to avoid it with phpBB because of a few reasons. 1) Using the PEAR DB abstraction layer we're dependant on them fixing bugs and releasing updates. 2) The PEAR DBAL is really more then we nee...

Forum Upgrade

Just a quick FYI. In about 10 mins this forum will go offline to be upgraded to v2.0.1. Hopefully this process will go nice and smooth and we'll be back online nice and quick.

Thanks :)

We're currently not aware of any security issues with phpBB 2.0.1. We've done our damnest to make phpBB2 as secure as we possibly can. Throughout the entire beta and RC phase of our development only 2 security problems were found. One was very minor and very complex, the second was potentally quite ...

That bug existed in RC3 and lower and was fixed 2 days after the first report, and RC4 was released. Several sites (securitytracker included) report it incorrectly as simply a 2.0 bug..

Do you have command line access to your database? If so please try this bit of SQL:

Code: Select all

$sql = "SELECT * FROM phpbb_users WHERE user_id = 2";
and tell us what it says. It sounds to me like your users table may be corrupt. Did you host change anything recently on the server?

Sounds like the mod you installed modified the config table and broke it.

The easiest way to fix it is probably do drop the config table, then recreate it based on the data in the schema file and the basic file (in the db/schema's dir).
