vBSEO - how to turn of via MySQL

Guys we have a problem, we are following instructions from vBulletin:

http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=233272&goto=newpost

on how to tune up our vBulletin install. All has been accomplished apart from when we remove Zend we get probems as vBSEO is locking or keeping files cached in Zend format so we get problems as can be seen here:

I've disabled the vBSEO files but it looks like we need to turn it off within the forum software, but as we can't access the controlpanel in vB we cant do that.

Therefore we need to know how to go in via MyPHPAdmin and alter the SQL data to turn off vBSEO via the tables.

Once that is done we need to be able to clear the cached data used.

Please advise urgently as we are dead in the water until we can do this.

ServInt are recommending:

My recommendation is to re-enable Zend, disable vbseo and the disable Zend. That seems to be the only way that things are going to work.

This is not a cache problem. It is a VB/vBSEO configuration problem.

Hi Daron,

Do you receive the Zend error when you access your AdminCP? As vBSEO does not rewrite the admincp, and expressly excludes it within the .htaccess file, the error shouldn't show there.

If not, simply disable the product and delete the files (including .htaccess) and you should be good to go.

Unfortunately we cant even get into the control panel we get the same error message from zend. Have tried renaming the vBSEO files and no difference is made.

ServInt do assure me though that is it the vbSEO files that are remaining Zend encoded.

ServInt have now reinstalled Zend and eAccelerator so we are now at least up and running.

Good to hear.

Yeah so we now have to make the decision on whether to try again and change the system around closer to the defined optimisation path.

If we do go again though we'll disengage vBSEO first!
