Hello, I finally got my forum updated and have now commerce. I have a couple of questions that I hope someone will be able to answer. When a member purchases a subscription, I don't get a confirmation e-mail from PayPal as I used to do when I used the subscription manager. How can I change that? Is it possible to remove the lines, so members don't have to put in their address, when they subscribe? One member did manage to subscribe without paying. Is there some loop whole I should be aware off? Thank you

Yes, it's wonderful. Thanks so much. I have written Invision now to ask them to update the forum, so I hope it can be done soon.

I'm updating this topic again. My hosting company won't help, because it's not a managed server, and I can't have the site moved to a managed server, because it's too big and I need access to the forum, before I can downsize. So it's a bad circle and I'm stuck. But Miss_B was kind and looked into what error message it is and it appears to be mysql related, so I need to learn mysql, so I can figure it out. I looked up some tutorials but I'm a bit confused about how many programs I need to download when I have the server already. When I go to cpanel, I have three places to go for mysql, which are: MySQL Databases, MySQL Database Wizard and Remote MySQL The error message is: The server requested authentication method unknown to the client. And I can google and people suggest running a specific query, but how do I do that and with what program? I can't find anything in those three programs that that says "run query". It's mostly about creating databases and users. So what programs do I need to download to my own computer to hopefully run queries? I hope I make sense.

Thanks so much for the help so far. It's getting late here in Denmark, so I'm off to bed. I know several of you say mySQL error, but the server seems to be in version 5.5.62, so if it's not the incorrect version, what can it be then?

I did that now and unfortunately that didn't help. Now it says another error when you "go back to index" than it did before. Now it's 500 Internal Server Error. Before it was error 404. I changed the file back to the original.

What do I do? Replace the file with a file with that info? I just don't want to do something wrong and mess even more up.

I have copied the file now.

I must admit, I have no idea what the htaccess file is and where to find it. But on the other hand, I did find the place in cpanel where I could change php versions and it's 5.4 and I can change it to 5.6, but it doesn't help on the problem.

How do I do that?

Well, now I looked at another page with server information from cpanel and it says: PHP Version 5.4.45 MySQL version 5.5.62-cll But in phpMyAdmin it said php version 7.2.7 and mySQL 5.5.62 But MissB says the error message is specifik about mySQL, but even the hosting company said it was 5.5.62, when I talked to them.

You might be onto something. PHP version is 7.2.7 it says in phpMyAdmin. How can I downgrade to 5.6 until I get the forum updated?

The forum is here: http://himstedtheaven.net/forum/ where you can see the error. I will write you, thanks so much.

I have found conf_global.php in the File Manager, but I'm not sure what to do now. When I click on view, I get lots of information and I'm not sure what I'm looking for. I see a line that says sql user and then the user name and when I look at mySQL Database that user is listed as privilieged user. It also says sql_pass at one line and a word. Is that the password then? In mySQL Database the password is not listed. No one had done any changes to this, so I don't know how this problem arised.

Thank you. I will try to look at it tomorrow as it's getting late here in Denmark. Yes, it's the same. The hosting company suggested moving to another server and a week later, they found out they couldn't move to the server, they suggested, and I had to call them on a specific phone number, where they did not answer. I then finally got help through their regular support to cancel the move and fix my ftp access which somehow got messed up during the move. So that is why it has taken so long to try to figure something out.
