A Moment of Glorious Stupidity

[Joss]

Oh, boy, it is going to be one of those days; I can just feel it in my bones.

For some reason I cannot seem to get the office warm this morning; my banjo has bought a ticket for the deep south, my harmonica is buried under the table, the dog has abandoned me and my hands can herdlery tip the wids on tjhos pist.

But, this is also the day when I put up a new site for a client.

So, three domains - two of them static and one a PW site. All simple stuff. Just create the new database via CPanel, upload the files, change the config file details and hit go!

And...

Unable to complete this request due to an error. Error has been logged.

Oh Bugger.

So, we start the debug procedure.

Yes, htaccess is there and right.

Yes, config seems all sorted.

Permissions good.

Can link to an assett - so stuff is actually up there.

Dive back into config and turn the debug on.

Get some strange message about having SQL base table problems or some such thing that I have never heard of before.

So, with a heavy heart, I open up PhpMyAdmin and have a butchers at the squirrel.

Oh.

Ummmm,,,,

ah.....

Oooops!

You know, creating a database is all well and good. But actually importing some data into it can make a whole lot of difference to the functionality of the site!

Silly Idiot!

Been there, done that! Time to have another cup of coffee...
