    Urgent!

    Hi my site http://wilkinson.x10.mx is down, when I go to it it has the following problem.

    Connection Problems

    Sorry, SMF was unable to connect to the database. This may be caused by the server being busy. Please try again later.

    It was working fine before this happened, and help would be muchly appricated.

    Thanks.

    He typo'd, according to backend system it's wilkinson.x10.mx.x10.mx. In any case, I see some problems in the configuration file for SMF:

    1) No db password. The database user -has- to have a password at least 5 letters long to be able to create it in cpanel, so the fact that there's no password defined for SMF to actually use to connect is a problem. Fixing this should be easy, just add whatever you chose as a password for that user to the config, and it should connect again.

    Less obvious is the next problem though, which won't show up until problem 1 is fixed.

    2) The page address is incorrect in SMF. You have it as wilkinson.x10.mx in the config, which isn't entirely correct as the main domain currently set on your account is actually wilkinson.x10.mx.x10.mx, so any posts or links that end up on your board will link to nowhere. There's two ways to fix this - either change the domain in the config, or put in a Main Domain change request through your account panel, and change it to wilkinson.x10.mx. My guess as to the cause of this is you chose "x10.mx" in the dropdown box, but then put wilkinson.x10.mx in the box as the domain. So, it gave you wilkinson.x10.mx.x10.mx - what you chose, plus the value of the dropdown box.
