WHM Change domain name keep user name.

I have a forum. The domain name for the forum has been sold but the forum itself and the database are still mine.

I set up a new domain name and renamed the old account name in WHM to the new one. I left the user name the same.

Technically I should be able to use the same directory and the forum will still be intact. Is this true?

Here is the error I get when I go to the new URL.

There seems to have been a slight problem with the database.

An E-Mail has been dispatched to our Technical Staff, who you can also contact if the problem persists.

We apologise for any inconvenience.

And here is the error email I receive.

What settings would I need to change to have the forum operating?
