Pen testing 1: Unable to switch to main HBH db

Hello and sorry to post about pen testing 1: there are a lot of things about it… But I didn't found the answer I needed:

I already had the sql injection points, and I tried to do it again to have access to the member.php page. An error told me: "Unable to switch to main HBH db" This message is not in the "background" of the mission, so I need to know: is there a bug in this challenge? Probably not I guess, but I tried a lot of time to so the SQL injection again and it didn't work. I tried the DOS attack, and I think I got it (I can verify is somebody want to PM me about it). But again, "Unable to switch to main HBH db". So is it my fault? Maybe I need to sleep a few hours and try it again but I spend a lot of time on it today… If someone want to help me, thanks. else { while(1){ tryAgain(); } }

Thanks for reading.

Thanks a lot for this site =] In France, we don't learn to think like offenders, we only have a lot of papers to read… And it is not the good way to understand the security I think. This website helped me a lot when I was learning web programming (etc) in "school".

I am having the same problem im getting the following message

Access denied for user 'hbh'@'localhost' (using password: NO)

When trying a large range of sql injection on the adminzzz page. Is there a bug or is it working as intended?
