Either try placing an index.php file inside your subdomain folder with the following code: <?php header(“HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently”); header(“Status: 301 Moved Permanently”); header(“Location: http://www.my-domain.com/my-permalink/”); ?> or use cPanel to setup/redirect the subdomain to any address you want.
Sum of the comments/possible solutions plus a third option: Would be possible with a WP MU installation (doesn’t work because of host) Custom Post Types (for some reason the OP needs separated DB) There also is the HTTP API built into WP.
If I understand you correctly, you’re removing the old Mambo site and intend to run WordPress as the main site in this domain. If that’s the case then (depending on any plugins that you have running) all you will need to do after making backups of everything is move the entire contents of your /wordpress … Read more
Sounds like it is something left in your database. Try to make a new backup and import it again then run this SQL in your MySQL.

I’m not sure that what you want is possible. Per the WordPress Codex page on Multisite: You are given the choice between sub-domains and sub-directories, except when existing settings restrict your choice. You must choose one or the other. So you can set your network up to use either sub-domains OR sub-directories for your child … Read more
Do not alter any table names. In both sites (just to be sure) in wp-config.php set the WP_SITEURL and WP_HOMEURL to the related domain so these constants should be http://wow7.ro on the main domain install and http://lol.wow7.ro on the subdomain install. See Codex. Note that it doesn’t work for links insrted inside post or page … Read more
