My local test installation of XenForo got trashed the other day in the most unlikely and unintentionally comical way. Read about that here for a tickle.
I now want to reinstall it, preserving the MySQL database, but the installer warns that it will overwrite it. I know a little tweak to one of the config files will stop this from happening, instead installing XenForo fresh without overwriting the database
@Brogan I think you posted the answer to this one in of your HOWTOs, but apologies, I can't find it now so would be grateful if you could advise me.
If anyone else can also answer this, I'd be interested to hear your solution too.
