Topic: sqlite database

This may be a silly question, but I am not that familiar with sqlite - - yet!

Can the punBB SQLite database be moved elsewhere? and if so what do I need to change to point to the new location?

According to this topic, it can be moved:

DB-file is easily movable. Just shutdown your website, zip up all files, move to new location, unzip and you're ready to go.

Unfortunately I can't provide you with any info beyond that, as I've never used SQLite.

Looking for a certain modification for your forum? Please take a look here before posting.

hmm, that is for moving the whole kaboodle - though thanks for letting me know as I was unaware of the back up problem that could occur. Even more reason to need access to some kind of sqlite admin functionality.

Yes, but $db_name in config.php should be a relative path from the forum directory to the database file

Re: sqlite database

aha! thanks that was what I was looking for. And of course makes perfect and utter sense, and makes me feel really bad for not knowing that!

Thanks Smartys
