Re: ERROR: Unable to fetch category
seem to me now it is working! 
but can somebody explain what was the problem? may be server or what?
Re: ERROR: Unable to fetch category
I'm guessing your host temporarily ran out of space on the mysql drive. If it happens again, enable DEBUG mode and you will get a more descriptive error message.

Re: ERROR: Unable to fetch category
so i don't have any more space in my mysql database?
is it possible to see what is in database and delete things?

Re: ERROR: Unable to fetch category
well i don't think its the space the database is taking up but the space the temp files for the database take up, i guess when the temp folder gets cleaned up you can browse the forum when it is full you can't... talk to your host

Re: ERROR: Unable to fetch category
Hi Everybody,
I m also a punbb fan from Turkiye.I have a trouble to shoot which i ve been suffering for a long time.Almost each two days i get this error and my contact to the admins didnt help much really.So i m thinking of the possibility to add a crontab(i didnt mispell it,right?) and if it might solve the issue.My pages & forum is hosted on mybesthost.com.
Are there any other punbb users getting hosted in mybesthost.com nd having smilar problems??
Thanx in advance

Re: ERROR: Unable to fetch category
i don't think a crontab could be used to stop mysql running out of space, its your hosts problem, you should also turn on debug mode to check this is what is causing the error
Re: ERROR: Unable to fetch category
It s just the same error Chombila wrote.I have tried the debug mode on earlier.

Re: ERROR: Unable to fetch category
yr host? well to move from one host to another you need to install phpmyadmin on both, make a backup and restore it on the other host if you come to #punbb @ irc.quakenet.org in IRC chat me or someone else will probably be able to guide you through it
