I received this message: A fatal, non-recoverable error has occurred Technical information (for support personel): Error Message: The connection to the database failed. Affected Elements: Database.OpenConnection(); So I have to seek in the sript the function openconnection() but I did not succeed to find it. Where is it ? PS : sorry for my frenshy english ;-)

    It's not exactly the name of the script, but rather the function of one of the DB classes that interacts with the database. This might also belong in the troubleshooting forum where most people might see it. Damn, lost my MVP status to move it :\ Mark? insight into this?

    I'm assuming your database is running properly, and all the right settings were entered into the vanilla installation...

    I do recall that the Vanilla headers do call in extra classes with them, so completely replacing them without checking to see what other inclusions are being called would surely be causing an error like this. You are hopefully not doing this I presume, are you? Also if your headers call any extra php specific code and you're importing your headers properly, there could be some conflicts going on i'm unable to fathom at this point.
