I have just uploaded the files from site intergration Mod 3.4.xx.1.1 to my forum and on default.asp have got the message
There has been a problem...Your strDBType is not set, please edit your config.asp to reflect your database type.
The page is www.pilottravelshop.co.uk/board/default.asp and because of this error message my logo is squashed.
This is the line of code I uncommented in config.asp to specify the database type strDBType = "mysql"
In the config.asp connection string I have uncommented the following code, putting in the relevant password, username, servername, etc details of course.
strConnString = "driver=MySQL;server=myservername;uid=myusername;pwd=mypassword;database=mydatabase" '## MySQL
Even in Admin Options>Forum Variables Information it confirms that my strDBType is set as mysql. Therefore, I find it very, very strange that I am getting the above error message.
I had previously uploaded a version of Snitz without this mod and the additional files and had no such problems. The original forum is at www.pilottravelshop.co.uk/temp/default.asp" target="_blank">http://www.pilottravelshop.co.uk/temp/default.asp
But now my web content editor wants me to intergrate the forums into the existing house style of our site www.pilotguides.com/community Hence I went for the above mod.
What the hell am I doing wrong ? I thought this was the easy bit before I start changing headers and footers, etc.
I've even had no problem while in Admin options, selecting 'MOD Setup' selecting 'Site Integration Mod for 3.4.xx' from the drop down box and clicking 'Update' as directed.
Maybe I'm using the wrong Mod altogether. Confused ? I soon will be.
Perhaps I just have to press on with the rest of the mod and it'll work out in the end ?

Odd, none of the changes for the S.I. MOD in config.asp are anywhere near the DB definitions. maybe the line got accidentally removed or corrupted somehow? |

Replace default.asp with a working copy ? The error message says config.asp is the problem not default.asp
Confused ? I soon will be. |
