Everything function until now!!!

Nobody cant register, what is happening?

This:

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'

[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] The field 'FORUM_MEMBERS.MEMBER_RATING_TOTAL_COUNT' cannot contain a Null value because the Required property for this field is set to True. Enter a value in this field.

/pf/register.asp, line 295


I installed user rating, but then I erased it...

Uninstalling a mod does not only mean deleting the files installed by the mod. You also need to delete the fields and tables added by the mod.

BEFORE PLAYING WITH THE DATABASE, TAKE A BACKUP OF IT !!!!

a) If you have a "fresh" forum (no other MODs), just put the access file from the distribution onto your forum database

b) Otherwise, determine what fields/tables this particular MOD added to your database and delete them.


PS: Never try MODs etc on working/online systems. Just use a local test forum to play with them first.

Looks like you erased the code but left the database changes. If you know the fields added by the mod you can delete them from the database, but you'd better be sure about what you do.

Maybe you can post here for help on the DB changes made by the mod, so that you can undo them.

I know this may not do much now, but I'll say it nonetheless: if you just want to try a mod, maybe you should consider doing in a test forum or maybe keep an updated backup copy of the DB before installing the mod, so that you can undo the changes to the DB structure.

You don't know what the database is? I wouldn't recommended messing with it, then...

What are you using, Access?

That would help, yes. Can you understand the syntax. Maybe if you post the contents here we can help you determine what you need to change in your DB.

No !!! The LDB file is the LOCK file for MDB file (keeps the log for the "users" connected to the database). snitz_forums_2000.mdb is your actual database file. If you have MS Access 2000 or 2002 installed on your local computer, download the database with FTP and open it with MS Access.
