I use godaddy for my site and then have postnuke 0.762 and coppermine 1.4.8. This is the second time I have had to do this.
Before the problem I had a stand alone coppermine and running postnuke. Everything worked fine. I downloaded pncpg34 and followed the instructions(although a tad bit vague in the admin settings doc) for installing and setting up.
I was able to activate and link postnuke to coppermine. and it works just fine except for one problem I noticed. if you go to cpg from post nuke your link is http://www.yoursite.com/postnuke/html/index.php?name=pnCPG. After setting up cpg I set the Home Link back to the main site http://www.yoursite.com/postnuke/html/index.php and am able to click back to the main page.
And somehow it isn't wrapped in postnuke. anywho, I noticed that the http://www.yoursite.com/postnuke/html/index.php?name=pnCPG
is still in the address bar. noticed on seperate computers, so if I refresh in the homepage of postnuke it loads up cpg
anyway back to the main problem
I tried to add a random block to PN for cpg, the whole site doesn't work and I get the query0 user problem. Somehow when Godaddy installs postnuke, no database is made. Although the site runs just fine. So I can't use phpmyadmin to fix it. And I would like to use blocks for cpg34 because it would enhance my site.
Is there anyway to fix this?
Yes there is a solution to this.
Open up phpmyadmin and select the Postnuke database.
Select table nuke_blocks (you mave a different prefix) and delete the last record here (just to be sure, do verify it is the pnCPG block.
Now your site is back to normal.
What went wrong ?
1. You did not configure the block correctly
When adding a block, i always suggest to first position this on the right side. In that case if something fails, you still can access the admin section in order to configure/remove the block.

well when I am in godaddy, they have a link for me to click and the software automatically installs postnuke. It doesn't create a database.
when I am in the control panel for my postnuke, they have a version phpmyadmin there for me to administer a database, but that only shows up if I create one myself.
Known drawback of using godaddy, with their "value added" program that doesn't let you edit database stuff of the apps they have auto-installers for. We disapprove auto-installers of any kind.
Complain at godaddy. Don't use auto-installers in the future.
