Yet another multi database issue..

[eluser]danmontgomery[/eluser]
It's already connected to one DB, you can't use $this->load->database() to close one connection and establish another on the same $this->db object (Generally speaking, when you call $this->load, the loader checks to see if the object exists already, to prevent loading resources multiple times).

So, you shouldn't have a problem if you just don't load the first database initially, otherwise you would have to use the $this->alt_db method.
