Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
SJ77 Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 Hi I thought I could simply change my database password and update the config file and be fine. However, I did so and my site was serving up offline errors. So I changed it back to the old password and all is fine again. What else needs changed?
Makoto Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 Nothing else should need to be changed. Can you double check your new database credentials and ensure they have full access to your IPS database?

Can you double check your new database credentials and ensure they have full access to your IPS database? Same user, I simply changed the password. I wasn't getting a password denied for user error. It was just the IPS site not working standard error. The template didn't load, site stopped working.
Makoto Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 Hard to say without taking a look at it, you'll need to review your server error logs and make sure the changed password is indeed working. You shouldn't ever need to change anything other than what's in the conf_global.php
Bluto Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 Did you flush privileges after you changed the password? Quote After executing the UPDATE statement, you also need to execute the FLUSH PRIVILEGES statement to reload privileges from the grant table in the mysql database. hth

Bluto Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 No sure. I normally just create a new user and the steps for that has never yielded me an issue.
Makoto Posted April 11, 2019 Posted April 11, 2019 We'll need to see the actual error logs to know what's really going on behind the scenes.
SJ77 Posted April 11, 2019 Author Posted April 11, 2019 Well it's something to do with REDIS, if I turn redis off I can change the password

Perhaps bugs in ips software causing this. I don't know.
