Hello to All,

I have looked on this forum for a possible thread similar to my problem
and I didn't find any so I'm taking the liberty to write a new one.

The solution to my problem may be simple but I can't seem to find
the answer so perhaps someone can help. My problem briefly stated
is as follows:

I uploaded a working set of "php" website files to my Blue Voda "ftp"
account and everything is mostly working, however in the code some
webpages are referencing an SQL basebase somewhere. I've managed
to load some dbs into my BV mySQL and/or entered various table formats
utilized in the code which should be valid. I've also created a valid SQL
username and password with which to access it [from my "configure.php"
file in the code]. The problem however is when I execute the "php" code
[from the appropriate webpage URL] I receive an error message saying:
"1046 - No database selected".

I have no idea what could be wrong or where to start looking for
answers. Does anyone have any good ideas?

Any help would greatly be appreciated!!! Thanks in advance!!!

Your script certainly has a configuration file (it might be something like config.php) where it stored the necessary database details that you provide during installation. If this is a commercial script, there is usually a wizard that allows you to do so. However, in some cases, this is not true, and you have to manually edit this file to edit this info. If you haven't, you can't connect to the database. Also, make sure that you have added the user to the allowed users for the specific database.

Thanks Nav for the quick response and thanks also for being such
a dedicated helping resource....not just for me but all the people
I see you help!!!! Excellent job!!!

Now to your reply, as I indicated in the initial post I have already
found the config file located in ".../includes/configure.php". Also
the username & password code in that file looks something like this:

define('DB_SERVER', 'localhost'); // eg, localhost - should not be empty for productive servers
//NEW BLUE VODA LOGON:
define('DB_SERVER_USERNAME', 'wpp_xxx_co_qcf_xx_5');
define('DB_SERVER_PASSWORD', 'ght_xxxxxx_45');
define('DB_DATABASE', 'wpp_xxx_co_qcf_xxxx_7g');

Additionally, I've also mapped the file path structure so I know where and
how this "configure.php" file is called. I know it's being called properly
but somehow I don't think I'm logging onto the actual database like
I think I am. Is there some way to check if I am logged in???

Again thanks for the help!!!

I finally found the answer to the "database not selected" problem
I was having. Therefore this post is a final follow up for anyone
who may read this thread in the future and/or for all those who
may not be that familiar with SQL functionality.

Firstly, "SQL is an acronym which is defined as: Structured Query
Language. The Structured Query Language (SQL) forms the
backbone of most modern database systems. SQL is a computer
language [organized in table format] aimed at accessing,
manipulating, and querying data stored in relational databases. These
databases can be accessed either interactively via "phpMyAdmin"
Administrator Tools [provided by Blue Voda in your "Control Panel"]
or via software programs/scripts located in your web directory.

Secondly, my problem manifested itself by saying "1046 error: no
database selected" which [after some careful debugging] indeed was
the case. After a SQL database is created [aka - "add new user"]
table formatted data then needs to be added which in my case
either wasn't there or what was there was corrupted. Since my
problem was associated with migrating one website [with an
already established SQL database] to Blue Voda, I simply
needed to "export" all my table data out of the old server
and "import" it back into the new BV server [via "phpMyAdmin"].
The process is fairly painless and everything works great now.

I hope this explanation helps someone and good luck with your
SQL projects in the future.
