Ive copied my board to a local test server so i can use it to test some mods on. Ive transfred over the files and database. Made the changes to the cookie and domain info.

All looks well but when i try to read a thread i get this error.

[code]  Could not obtain accounts information  DEBUG MODE  SQL Error ]

Can anyone tell me what this means?

it would appear you might be missing adr tables in your database.....can you check the correct tables are there..?

Ive checked the tables, all the relevent ones are empty on both my web server and my localhost. I dont understand why my local host wond display threads. Every thing else works.

Have you made changes to your local config.php file?

Code: Select all
<php>


Second thing]UPDATE `phpbb_config` SET config_value="/{your forum location}/" WHERE config_name="script_path";UPDATE `phpbb_config` SET config_value="{your ip address or domain name}" WHERE config_name="server_name";[/code]

example:
Code: Select all
UPDATE `phpbb_config` SET config_value="/forum/" WHERE config_name="script_path";UPDATE `phpbb_config` SET config_value="mmopurge.com" WHERE config_name="server_name";
