Hi,

as some of you may know I got the Invision Board working on my local
server. Now I after adding some threads - working offline works faster for
me as I am through dialup - to my forum I want to upload it get it working.

I registered at Tripod.Uk as they offer free MySQL and PHP support.
Then I uploaded whole files for my board. (I also tried sm_install.php but did
not work! trying again...) but It did not work.

I want to upload the whole board with all threds in it to my tripod-account so
that users can access it from there?

Anyone who could help me, 7th, as you are professional on Invision Boards?
Maybe someone seen a tutorial ;)

Here are my database information I've got from tripod:

Your database information:Name: sharee2_uk_db
Username: sharee2
Password: no password needed
Host: localhost

thanks.

upload the SQL file via phpmyadmin

You need to first make a backup of your present forum by going into "Sql Management." It can be found on bottom left panel of the admin section. Go there and make My Sql backup.

Now you need to upload the whole installation files not your current board files. If you dont have the installation, download again and then upload all the files to the server. When setting up give the details you have about hostname,dbname,username,password etc. and start it up. After that similarly upload your database replacing the old one.

Edit: Why go through all this? get a free forum at invisionfree.com or something and use that?

Boards at invisionfree are slow - and I can&#39;t really change skins there.

Fuck now, but I have another problem. Anyone who may solve it will
get a nice prize ;)

I can&#39;t use the phpMyAdmin at Tripod. It telling me Access denied although
I am already logged in.

I will give it up, no sense, as I am not well experienced - if you can solve it
or want to convince yourself: http://www.tripod.lycos.co.uk - Login: *****
Password: ***** ;)

By the way, there is already everything uploaded in /forums2.

Thanks for any little help ;)

Edited: I.am told me not to put my password in order of security. PM me
if you want to help. Thanks.

I.am., PM is on the way.

Remove the username/password otherwise someone will just change it. If anyone wants to give it a try should pm you.

Edit: You have to chmod it right thats why you are not able to access it. Pm me your ftp/ssh details and I will see what I can do as far as accessing phpmyadmin is concerned.

Btw, tripod has some php tools as well.

in phpMyAdmin, you need to edit config.php.inc to represent your DB username and password. ;)

I am in a hurry, someone else wants to look over can see it. Dont forget to get the ftp details, its different.

@haxor, they have php4u on tripod as part of website tool so you dont need all that.

:lol: I wouldn&#39;t know though, since I stay away from Tripod like the plague. :P

:lol: Same here, I just saw it when I went into his account.

Unfortunately, for some odd reason I am unable to connect to tripod via FTP, so couldnt help much. Their php4u said Access denied and there was a news a year old saying their hdd crashed so all db&#39;s with s and t are lost :lol: .
Tripod is messed up&#33;

How about hosting the board remotely if you can&#39;t get tripod set up right?

ClicDev (http://www.clicdev.com) offers some good IB hosting. So does IPBFree (http://www.ipbfree.com) and InvisionFree (http://www.invisionfree.com).

Thats what I suggested initially.

ClicDev is pretty good, you can have your custom skins as well.

BBFree.com&#39;s good... ClicDev doesn&#39;t allow hacks :(... and InvisionFree is as slow as frozen molasses. :P

No, you email the already modded files to the support staff and they&#39;ll upload it for you. Any hacks requiring queries must have the queries completed via ACP before they upload the files.

Obviously, this makes hacks to the ACP itself that require queries impossible, but it&#39;s better than nothing.

:lol: Just noticed you&#39;re running Abyss listening on port 80 from "c:&#092;programme&#092;abyss web server" and that you&#39;re using an old version of both Abyss and MySQL... You&#39;re running NetBIOS with hex 0x03 open... your MAC address is 44-45-53-54-00-00... your box is named "OEMCOMPUTER" and I&#39;m spying on that 0x03 right now... I have root on your box (217.[72.55%].112.55) btw. :P

His MAC node is 165.[96.86%].42.231 and he has two other computers on the same MAC named "OEMCOMPUTER" and "OEMWORKGROUP." He has 3 NetBIOS names registered by broadcast and port 21 is semi-closed... nice try though. :D
