Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.So, when you do an install, part of it calls _drupalvb_init_user_map(). This in turn tries to use drupalvb_db_query to query the user table in the bulletin board's database.
But the problem is - the connection information for the bboard doesn't exist yet - it has yet to be set up. So, the query fails, as it tries to query a 'user' table in the local database and fails.
I think this needs to be moved out of the install hook and maybe integrated with the form that lets you set up the database information.

GravitySpec commentedAny idea when this fix will be available?
I think it is somewhat related to the problem I'm having getting 2.1 to work with my copy of Drupal 5.10 that I upgraded from 5.6. Using 1.1 seems to work fine, but when I unload and install 2.1, the minute I activate it, it says my database connection info is incorrect, so I set go to the page it points me to and double check my vbulletin database connection info. I have a standalone database for it so I do not use a prefix. I also have the config.php file I carried over from the old Drupal install with all the correct connection info. but once I save the information. My site goes blank with simply the following error "Access denied for user 'ODBC'@'localhost' (using password: NO)". I'm not sure where things are going wrong with this module as this is a pretty general error from what I see. At this point I can't make use of 2.1. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

sunCommitted attached patch, which initializes DrupalvB's user mapping table upon first submit of the database settings form instead.
