CF6 error: database connection failed

dkopylov 15 Aug, 2017
Good day!

I install chronoforms v6 on joomla 3.7.1, php 5.6 and 7.0
I read tutorial for chronoforms v6, page 22
But after I created new form in easy mode or advanced mode, I don't can choose Database table in "Database-Savedata" module.
In option Database table chronoforms show to me error - "Database connection failed".
In Chronoforms v5 i can choose my table.

Same error i see in "Database-Read data" module in CF6
But If i add new model in Read data, then i can choose my table in "Database table" option.

Could you plase help me.

Thank you.

Hi dkopylov,

Please try to enable/disable the pdo mysql module on your server ?

Hi

How I can enable/disable this module?

I have a Webspace with joomla

same here :-(

The strange thing is that it worked already, saved even data in a table and a few moments later - "Database connection failed". I will try after the weekend again.

Hello,

Please send a message using the "Contact" page and I will send you a patch file to test it, because the issue is server dependent and I can't produce it here.

I could solve my problem by changing the joomla configuration!
> server > database > type: MySQLi
instead of type: MySQL(PDO)

@Max -
obviously I did not read carefully your post from August 19the "try to enable/disable the pdo mysql module on your server" - sorry.

Maybe this will help others who struggle with the same problem ...
