My vBulletin won't save some settings. Read inside

**Dan@TT** · 02-15-2007, 08:34 AM

First of all, Hello

I'm having some issues with my vBulletin 3.6.4 that I bought yesterday. I have installed it to my server, everything is ok , database communication works, anyways it's up and running.

Anways, I've started to customize the forum from my admin cp but some problems started to show up:

in vBulletin Options I can't save every setting that I modify. I got a blank screen after (see in my attached picture) , and also , in Forum Manger , I cannot edit my Categories, Forums and I cannot add any other forums. I got the same blue screen.

What's wrong with it?

Thanks

Here's the blue screen after I try to save.

I cannot add links here yet , but try to access it here

not sure why you would be getting any errors like this on a fresh install tho

I have replied to your PM

I'm starting a new install right now and check from the begining if the forum manager works

Yep, stil that error, I've reinstalled the forum right now and I have the same error

I cannot save

absolutely a fresh install, everything was deleted on the httpd directory , a fresh empty database i really can't tell what's wrong with it. there isn't any other database on my dedicated server to cause this

Allright, it seems that is working now but this is how.

On my dedicated linux server I run Plesk 8.1 Control Panel. First time when I bought the server I've set up a single domain for a couple of months until a couple of days ago when I bought two more domains from GoDaddy. I've changed the name servers from my GD account to the ones used by my server , and I've also added the 2 new domains from Plesk CP to my server. It seems something went wrong here. Although my new domains respond to http/ftp/email/mysql requests it seems there's an error with vBulletin. So after I spend all this day trying to set up my new forum on my new domain (unsuccessfully) I've decided to install it on my first site which was on the server. I've created a new database and started the instalation on my first site (not the one that I was intenting to install it) and it worked. I have moved the entire /forum/ directory from /home/httpd/vhosts/my-first-site.com/httpdocs/forumm to /home/httpd/vhosts/the-site-that-ive-wanted-to-install-it.com/httpdocs/forum/ and that's all. It seems every function is working just fine now. I can save my settings from my admin control panel, i can create/delete/modify the forums, import avatars/smilies and so on.

I really don't have any ideea why it didn't worked for the first time on my second domain since I did the same steps. I hate Plesk. vBulletin is ok, it was Plesk's fault !

Now I will focus to set it up correctly and after to optimize it using your advices.

I guess I was wrong

it worked for a couple of minutes , it seems that I'm having some issues with mysql server

I got this message like 2000 times in my mysqld.log

Number of processes running now: 0
070115 11:41:20 mysqld restarted
070115 11:41:20 InnoDB: Started; log sequence number 0 2874641
070115 11:41:20 [ERROR] /usr/libexec/mysqld: Error writing file '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid' (Errcode: 28)
070115 11:41:20 [ERROR] Can't start server: can't create PID file: No space left on device

I'm looking for a solution to fix it and my forum will be up after

**Brandon Sheley** · 02-15-2007, 04:16 PM

care to share who your host is ?
and have you contacted them, asking if they no why ?

I'm with you, I have no idea why it wouldn't work

**Dan@TT** · 02-15-2007, 04:23 PM

EV1Servers.net

I have contacted them but no response so far. I believe they won't help me at all because it's a self managed server , that's their excuse always

ah bummer.

I wish I could help, but I've never seen this happen b4.

are you CHMOD'ing any folders or files that shouldn't be ?

**eric** · 02-15-2007, 10:49 PM

seems you have a problem with a ful partition

sql makes a pid but it complains about space .. look at partitions and the one that is full.

**Dan@TT** · 02-16-2007, 03:46 AM

no partition is full, i've double checked everything

i'm paying for nothing for a dedicated server

**eric** · 02-16-2007, 07:32 AM

isn't the partition on which the logs are, not full ?
just delete the log file and make a new empty one, look at exact name and permissions before and who is owner of the file
