ok im working on a friends site for him, i tried it through package manager yet it kept timing out, so im doing it manually with the following error

QuoteWarning: mysql_query(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/usr/local/mysql-5.0/data/mysql.sock' (2) in

any ideas?

hey sloopz,
..I dunno db stuff that well but hangin someone will rescue you. :)

Are you trying to run the install.php? If so, you should use the manual_tp_install.php file.

actually i tried to run tp_install.php wich is the only install php in the package (oh and i downloaded the package yesterday)

also the package manager install gives error on subs.php on line 2883 (if memory serves correctly)

Quote from: 2878 to 2890$date = strftime('%Y-%m-%d', forum_time(false));
   db_query("
      UPDATE {$db_prefix}log_activity
      SET" . substr($setStringUpdate, 0, -1) . "
      WHERE date = '$date'
      LIMIT 1", __FILE__, __LINE__);
   if (db_affected_rows() == 0)
   {
      db_query("
         INSERT IGNORE INTO {$db_prefix}log_activity
            (date, " . implode(', ', array_keys($cache_stats)) . ")
         VALUES ('$date', " . implode(', ', $cache_stats) . ')', __FILE__, __LINE__);
   }

If you download the manuall install packge you will have another database install file called manual_tp_install.php    thats the file you must use when you do the manuall install.

There is a DB install file only to, if you grab that you dont have to take the whole manuall install package.
Upload it to your forum root and point the browser to it.

download TP_0983_manual.zip to my PC.  unzipped into a folder.  used Core FTP to upload the folder to www.ecosaw.com/SMF/

run the manual_tp_install.php which reported a sucessful install/upgrade.


removed manual_tp_install.php from the website folder.

restarted the website and had the template error

artero No cross posting the same question in here please.

sorry too many screens opened I wondered where the post had gone.

My mistake
