Export is asking for database parameters. My site does not use a database.  en

I have had a website that was functioning fine until the latest update.  When I opened the site after the update, I suddenly can not export, because of "Missing Database Parameters".  There is NO DATABASE in this site, but I can't leave the fields blank for some reason.  And I can't export without filling them.

I seem to recall this happened with a previous update (conversion of files) but I can't remember how or IF I solved it or just started a new / duplicate design?

With WebsiteX5, the push messages now require a database.

So check whether push notifications are activated under ...

-----

1 Settings > Website management

Control Panel

[_] Enable push notification

I read somewhere else to turn push notification OFF if there was no database.   Are you telling me to turn it ON?

Thanks

It doesn't seem to matter if Push notifications are ON or not.   It still asks for FTP, Database parameters.  I have not changed anything in the FTP section as it was working fine.

I have now tested it on a new project.

If no database information has been specified but push notification is enabled, a yellow frame will appear around the “Database and FTP connection parameters” section during export.

If the push notification is deactivated again, the yellow frame during export also disappears and the website can be exported.

I can get the yellow box to turn on and off.  It doesn't make a difference.   No matter what I do within the FTP Parameters / Email area I can NOT export this stupid site.  Or any site it seems.  It exported no problem before the "Update".

It could be that there were errors in the FTP access data or the FTP password when updating WebSiteX5, so check all the information and type in the password again.

Never mind.  I am an idiot.  In both instances, I did not hit "NEXT".  I don't know why.  Maybe because of the cautionary warning box.  It's all good now.  Duhhh.   Thanks for the Push Notifications tip though, because that can screw up the export for sure.
