SQL Error Message - Incorrect String Value

#11

I am an experienced Mac user, and have been managing websites for a
decade in addition to doing print publications. I am proficient with
Dreamweaver, Photoshop, QuarkXPress, InDesign, Illustrator, MS Word
Office Suite, and Quickbooks Pro. I was able to quickly grasp the
operating procedure and seetings for the forum set up.

I am, however, absolutely lost and confused, and stressed-fatigued by
the constant phpbb bug problems and MySQL error messages, and the
parade of people telling me to go look at a link when its just a bunch
of industry jargon that is like hearing blah, blah, blah, blah.

This is not isolated to me. Take a look at that phpbb community
board. Every day, all day, it is a flurry of postings from people in
my shoes.

You need to keep both up to date for security reasons, but that's not
too hard, either. *And you'll have similar problems if you don't keep
any software up to date.

Sure, no problem. But, huh, what is "top-post" and do you do it, so
that I know how to not do whatever it is I'm doing.

Yup, every day there are incompetent people who have no idea what
they're doing but think it's possible to set up and run a secure web
site, then blame the software for their shortcomings.

And yea, when you look at the link, it's a bunch of technical comments
(not "industry jargon"). What do you expect when you're having
technical problems?

Go ahead and waste your money on vbulletin - you'll have the same
problems because the software's not the problem.

And please don't top post.
