There are very few problems which can't be solved with a suitable application of high explosives.

vBulletin: More reliable than a '73 Chevrolet Vega!

I was updating VB in preparation for moving to the new server (with https) and it blew up. I restored the backup of VB and its database made just before I started the upgrade. It has a weird db error. I tried a backup a made a few days ago. It came back with a another (but different) db error. I decided after spending an hour trying to figure out exactly what the db error was and getting nowhere that my time might be better spent working on the SMF test board I made a few days ago before I discovered that VB had finally written a version of VB4 that would run with more current versions of PHP and deciding to try an update.

All I got from that was bla bla blew up bla bla try an update.

You're only given a little spark of madness, you mustn't lose it.

Sorry about the technical gibberish. And if I really rocked, I would have been able to quickly fix our VB forum.

I don't have a goat, so that's out.
