customers and orders are driving me nuts

[Simplyeasier]

I have created a new site on a new hosts server - copied from my exisiting host.

 

I set up the database from scratch and added the tables from the old host

 

Everything works EXCEPT

 

Orders and Customers when viewed from the admin panel

 

On the new server I get this for orders when looking thro admin

 

1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '-6, 6' at line 1

 

select o.orders_id, o.customers_name, o.payment_method, o.date_purchased, o.last_modified, o.currency, o.currency_value, s.orders_status_name, ot.text as order_total from orders o left join orders_total ot on (o.orders_id = ot.orders_id), orders_status s where o.orders_status = s.orders_status_id and s.language_id = '1' and ot.class = 'ot_total' order by o.orders_id DESC limit -6, 6

 

and this when looking at customers from admin

 

1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '-6, 6' at line 1

 

select c.customers_id, c.customers_lastname, c.customers_firstname, c.customers_email_address, a.entry_country_id from customers c left join address_book a on c.customers_id = a.customers_id and c.customers_default_address_id = a.address_book_id order by c.customers_lastname, c.customers_firstname limit -6, 6

 

Everything else in the store is OK

 

I have looked at this for the best part of 8 hrs :D I need fresh ideas - can anyone help ?

Newer versions of mysql do not allow for "negative" limits in the sql statement.

 

This bug report will show you what changes you need to make in split_results.php.

I agree, this error is gonna pop_up many times from now on. The PHP5 $this=null and the newer versions of mysql will cause two immediate headaches for newbees.

 

I will look forward to tipping one with you Charles next time I'm across the "pond".

 

Cheers.
