It means that the MySQL server is down, or your database account was 
removed or you or someone with access messed with the config and messed 
up the DB settings.

It means phpBB cannot connect to the database.

PS: You'll want to check your login and password, make sure the database is
running, etc...all of the stuff that should be obvious when you get an error
like this.

Clearly the BB is designed to fill a page... it seems to have a minimum
width, given the colums, images, etc etc that you can't really avoid... I'm
not clear on the terms/licensing of the BB, but I'd try a mixture of:

1. editing the  code(s) it looks like the "forums" column can be
shrunk down, which would reduce the overall size.

2. replacing some of the images and larger items with smaller ones

3. reducing the font size

BTW - it's fine at 1024x768, so maybe it's *okay* for a certain % of your
user base it wouldn't be for my target market tho.

Use PHPBB2's forums for these kind of questions.

[PHP] PHPBB2

[r]

Hi Guys and Girls,
I have reciently set up PHPbb2 on our site, its great and no problems with
the software but
I am using frames so that a person can at any time jump out of the forum and
came right back to the site but
because of the frames the forum is pushed a lot to the right...(you have to
scroll sideways to read everything) I know i hate when that happens if I
visit a website and i'm pretty sure a lot of other people do too.
Does anybody have any ideas on how i can make PHPBB's width a bit shorter?
Its set up here:
http://jumac.com/forums/
feel free to poke around and if you want post or write something etcnote
though that I have not "enabled" a link to this location as yet because of
the width thingso this section is not opened/dead/unknown

I dont really know if this is a PHP question but I presume to make any
changes I will have to dig into the PHP part right?

ANY advise or help appreciated,
Thanks in advance,
-Ryan.
