Question About having 2 IM 140 forums on 1 host

[Overseer]

Have had IM140 on my host for over 1 year now and everything has worked fine. wonted to upgrade my phpBB forum i also run for a NWN game to IM140, did a fresh install for the new forum, it seems to be running good but as i added themes to my new IM140 forum, i cant log in to my ACP on my old one, and I am wondering if my new one could be Bleeding over to my other sql data for my first IM140. im getting this when i try to access my ACP on my old forum

Code: Select all

phpBB ]

now remember i havent added any themes to my old IM140 only to my new IM140 it said themes_id (7) yesterday before i started installing themes to my new IM140.

Has Any one run across this?
and if so does any one know how to fix it?
{Note} i have not upgraded ether forum it is still 20.17 php, but im going to upgrade them when i have 1 full day to add all the updates

Are you using a seperate sql db for each forum?

If you are using the same db it will get incredibly complex.

You really should place each forum under it's own directory like forum and nwm or what ever else. Then you should have two seperate db's, one for each forum.

Yes it has 2 differant db's, was thinking both are useing port 80, did not know if i should change the port that the forum uses? but i cant access my old forum ACP because of the error. if im not mistaken there was a fix on the main IM site a year ago because i had this problem before after i first installed IM but i cant find the fix or remember it?

your port should make no difference. I think the cause is your cookies. dl the cookieMOD from the dl section here. Run it on both forums, then delete your browser cache. Be sure that on the forum giving the errors that includes.def_themes is chmodded to 666. Also make sure that all themes referenced in your db phpbb_themes atr available in your forum/templates folder.

I have several IM installs on the integramod2 url and several on the forumimages url. None required any special settings
