Arcade install

[Vincent Titus]

Oh wow brother thank you soooo much I'll try it once I get off work tonight

[Vincent Titus]

That just the arcade data base and not and right ?? It looks it when I looked at it

[Dave]

Yes it's just the arcade tables.

You probably already know this but I'm going to say it anyway. All you should need to do it make sure there are no arcade tables already in your database, change the table prefixes to match your own database and copy and paste the whole of the text into the SQL box in phpmyadmin then click on go and it will add the tables, if it says 'are you sure you want to' then click on yes and proceed, see image attached

yeah didnt work lol i think i need a database of the arcade allready installed on a copy of smf the file you gave me installed no problem but still shows i need to install it all on smf and i get the error

ex: install smf
    install arcade
    export the whole data base

[Vincent Titus]

its because my host has special characters in the database name EX:  '-353035397ab4' the dash and me or them are unable to change it they said

Ask vgamer to help you with this.

If you have access to phpmyadmin, you might also want to check the db and see if all of the table collations are the same AND are the same that the server is set to...

[Vincent Titus]

Looks good yes

[Vincent Titus]

I have other mods that installed with no problems so why this one

[Vincent Titus]

I get a permission error forbidden when I try to use package manager manager to upload the file

Now that I look more at the following, I haven't seen numbers in a hosting's path like this in a LONG time and I've been surfing the net for 35+ years...after '/home/sites/'.

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near '-353035397ab4' at line 1

I'm no expert but I'm thinking that it's either hosting related to the db and/or up may need to upgrade your forum, db, etc. to the latest versions starting with using SMF's upgrade.php which will make sure that the your db is upgraded to the latest version. Other than that, I've got nothing else...

[Vincent Titus]

Yeah when I install a site using their quick install , it automatically creates the database I can not create one myself it doesn't let me they put that at the end so there's no conflict between anyone on their servers . I will try the update grade.php but I am using 2.1 tyvm for trying

[Vincent Titus]

The thing is I installed the portal mode and other mods with no problems at all , why the arcade ??
