[3.3.x] Support Forum • Error Login in My Board After Restoring SQL Databse

I recently updated my board and everything was working fine until I restored a database from the list of some saved databe I found in my ACP, Now, my board loads fine but whenever I tried to login ACP it results to this error and the site won't load (open again) until after a while.

Break down:

I have 2 SQL database files, let's call the first one DB-1 and the second DB-2.
PS: DB-1 was a backup from my phpBB ACP maintenance tab, while DB-2 was a backup from my previous server's database manager.


Now here's the thing!

** If I restore DB-1, everything works fine (my board loads correctly, and I can login to ACP), but this database doesn't contain the most recent forums, posts (total topics), users (total members) I have on my board.

** If I restore DB-2, which carries the most recent forums, posts (total topics), users (total members) I have on my board, my board loads fine at first, but anytime I login it crashes my board, resulting to an HTTP Error 500 as shown in the screenshot below; then I'll have to clear cache (delete all the files in the production folder) before my board can load again (without been logged-in), and if I try to login again it crashes.




Please, how do I fix this mess?
