CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi,

I made a website for a client a long time ago (no support included) and now the clients ISP has updated to PHP7 and mysql_connect does not work anymore so no connection to the database What would be the easiest way to upgrade (possible?) or should I just try to get the all the content from the database/upload folder?

Thanks in advance!

Check config.php for dbms setting, must be mysqli

Hi Rolf,

thanks for your answer, and I had checked that already. But your answer got me thinking and now the issue is solved. I just had to set the db password again since PHP requires better encryption...

Now I just have to read the documentation on how to update to the newest version the safest way

Thanks!
