Instead of being such the same thing in each post pretending as the guardian of rules, try to help!!.
The problem is no one read the rules before posting. And the solution is. Check if your mysql server is turned on. Check if the connection details is right on config.lua
 
@melegy do u use mysql or sqlite ?

You know what, try to ask about details to give him a useful answer. :)

If you use sqlite, that doesn't matter at all. The problem is that your server is not showing the same settings as you show from the config.lua you posted.
So you are editing the wrong config.lua, you forgot to save it or you didn't close all servers before you restarted the server.

If you want to use MySQL, you can follow this tutorial
http://otland.net/threads/video-tut...ing-ot-server-website-and-shop-system.166818/

If you use SQLite you don't have to setup anything, just sqlType = "sqlite" is enough, and the s3db file, if you use MySQL you have to set it up with user name, password and all like you can see in that tutorial.

Try to use search box to find answers.

The point of the rules is to keep the forum clean. If you have other ides then report the rules post(just like I did with this exact rule) and it might get added / changed.

You should probbly take a closer look before you start nagging on other users.
