Since I upgraded to CB 1.4 I cannot execute a mysql_select_db() statement to select any database other than the database for the Joomla site.
This call does not return an error, it does not return at all and I am left with a blank screen
Code as simple as shown below will fail for any existing database unless 'xyz' is the Joomla database
<?
$con = mysql_connect("localhost",$username,$password);
$select = mysql_select_db('xyz',$con);
mysql_close($con);
?>
It doesn't even error, just hangs with a white screen....take out the mysql_select_db call and the page is displayed (but doesn't work because can't retrieve any data for the db).
When I restored the site from a backup I took just before the upgrade, everything started working again under 1.2.3
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Dom
