Hi @ all,

I just tried to insert a guestbook in my drupal installation.
I created a new bloc in the left column and set the php-code, which integrates the counter into the site, as its content.
While saving the following message appeared: "can not connect to your sql Database counter on host localhost"
So I refreshed, but the error is still there!
Now there is nothing working anymore!
What can I do? It's really important to solve that problem as soon as possible!
Could I change the access data of the database manually? If so, what file is to edit?
Thanks in advance!

Is the guestbook a non-drupal script? That might explain the problem.

Did you know that your drupal core comes with a nice statistics package? And there is an excellent guestbook module floating around here somewhere.

Perhaps you can give those a try.

first, disable the offending block in your database to get your site back online.

check out this discussion about manually disabling a block.

Oh, my fault!
It was a visit counter, not a guestbook!
Thank you a lot for your answers!
I'm going to try these solutions!

/EDIT/

Thanks a million to both of you!!!
It works!
