Hi all

I recently changed hosts the only thing i did was completely backup nuke and db and then add to temporary domain until nameservers are live, i resored database and uploaded all files but get this error on entry to index.php

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in **path removed by admin**/index.php on line 38

line 38 as follows

Code:

$row = $db->sql_fetchrow($db->sql_query('SELECT main_module from '.$prefix.'_main'));

any ideas????

thanks in advance

EH[/code]

My first thought is that there may be something screwy with your config.php - specifically with the database connection. DO NOT POST YOUR CONFIG.PHP here...

Double checking my first thought, came across a similar error on google at

references an issue with the database, so it sounds plausible. . .

I would check to see that you have changed your database settings to point to the new server (it's usually localhost, but you never can tell)

$dbtype should be defined as MySQL and all the files in the db folder should be there.

Just to confirm, you are using v2.10.01?

Are you able to access your database through a separate php file? Maybe running a select * on one of the tables just to see if you can get a response?

if anyone seriously knows how to fix this please contact me urgently i am willing to pay money for someone to restore my database and nuke to fully operational again

phpNuke should be defining those values from config.php. RWS_WhoIsWhere does use the standard mysql functions rather than the abstraction layer, which may be causing the problem

elite_haxor, please, please, please stop posting your full path information and you even provided your mysql user id! <sigh> That is only hurting you as it exposes very sensitive information out in a public realm.

Try shutting off your who is where block as well as inactivate the module. First try that.

However, second, try commenting out the following code in index.php and in modules.php:

Code:

include_once('modules/RWS_WhoIsWhere/includes/RWS_wiw.inc.php');

Don't do these all at once. Try one at a time progressively... This will rule in/out the WhoIsWhere causing the issue.

its fine but thanks, i managed to figure out what was wrong, my ftp client basically decided not to transfer some files correctly and missed mainfile.php and some other so i re-upped those only to get mysql errors but im quite good with sql so just re added all the tables it missed in the restoration ; )
