burakbarr Posted May 7, 2008 Posted May 7, 2008 Hi, I dont know how, maybe I am hacked but my files which are on my server was deleted (not my database only files like configure.php etc).I uploaded the file and everything came back.But when i want to login to admin panel, it writes "Unable to connect to database server!" My database is still there, it is not deleted but why cant I connect to database? What should I do to fix it? Thank you

What should I do to fix it? did you update the admin/includes/configure.php file? or just the includes/configure.php? you might need to reset both of them, as admin uses a separate file. and if you *ever* think that you might have been hacked - change all of your passwords! don't take the chance than someone can get in there again.
