help my OScommerce site stopped working :(

[karlkablisk]

Hi, if anyone knows what this error message means please let me know, my site is

 

www.kabliskkeep.com/store

 

that will bring you directly to the OScommerce site, it worked fine before and I was using it just ok, but I think someone (I was working with someone on the site) changed the username and password, to login to the site. we use Cpanel. could that have messed things up? If so what can I do to make this site work again? I was thinking there would be a file that tells the username and password to the structure of OScommerce files or something and I just need to reimput the values or something. Does anyone know where that is? Let me know please! thanks!

Changing the username to cpanel wouldn't do anything.

Your configuration file is messed up. ie: looks like someone may have changed the user or password for your database so wrong database information in your configuration file. I would check that. :)

 

store/includes/configure.php

and probably double check the one in

store/admin/includes/configure.php

Thanks I looked in those configure files and I see soemthing that says

 

define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', 'kablisk_osc1');

define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', 'o{eZgpIvWzCb');

define('DB_DATABASE', 'kablisk_osc1');

define('USE_PCONNECT', 'false'); // use persisstent connections?

define('STORE_SESSIONS', 'mysql'); // leave empty '' for default handler or set to 'mysql'

?>

 

I dont remember making this password or username but this is what shows up on the error on the store site. kablisk_osc1 maybe i should change the username and password to the same as the login for the cpanel? or is oscommerce seperate in login and password? I didnt set up the OScommerce account but if I am guided I think I can figure out how to fix this problem.

 

thanks you got me on the right track, if you can elaborate maybe I can fix this thing >_<

I doubt if the use of curly brackets in a password is accepted by MySQL:

 

define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', 'o{eZgpIvWzCb');
