wp-blog-header.php

No other files modd’ed than which ones?

head.php only been modd’ed with < ? require_once(‘blah/blah’); ? >

At the top of that function in cache.php, around line 185, do you see this:

function load_group_from_db($group) {
global $wpdb;
...

Line 206 is the $wpdb->hide_errors() line, and the only way that that would fail is if the global line is missing. or something else is wrong somewhere.

The only thing I can easily think of is that your cache.php is somehow corrupt. Try replacing it with a fresh copy from the download zip on here. Might work.

Yes, that line 185 is there. I will extract a new cache.php.

Okay, require the wp-blog-header.php file at the bottom of the Vanilla file conf/database.php, nowhere else.

Same error when i extract a new cache.php file.
@filosofo-That gave me the forum interface with this error on the “panel” section of the forum:
Warning: mysql_affected_rows() [function.mysql-affected-rows ]: A link to the server could not be established in /srv/www/htdocs/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 161
You can see what i mean by panel section here https://www.mytimewithgod.net/forum

Near the top of Vanilla’s library/Framework/Framework.Class.MySQL.php you should see this:

class MySQL extends Database {
function CloseConnection() {
if ($this->Connection) @mysql_close($this->Connection);
}

Add a line so it looks like this instead:

class MySQL extends Database {
function CloseConnection() {
if ($this->Connection) @mysql_close($this->Connection);
global $wpdb; $wpdb = new wpdb(DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD, DB_NAME, DB_HOST);
}

Boy, I’m glad others showed up to help, carnold. You guys are WAY beyond me by now.

Dude, you are the man!!! That took the Warning: mysql_affected_rows() [function.mysql-affected-rows ]: A link to the server could not be established in /srv/www/htdocs/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 161 error away. Dare i try to call the header?
@vkaryl-I thank you for your help earlier and this community is great, full of knowledge.

Well, whatever you did, it worked……Check it at https://www.mytimewithgod.net/forum
If i put in the call to get the footer, it pushes the forum down to the bottom but i hope i can fix that. Need to fix some CSS stuff but it did work ??
