Any help would be fantastic.

The first thumb I tried showed no error. Please help us out by providing links that show the actual error.

Nibbler, the file is there.

[PARADiSEiS808]

Both of them were not working when I tried them.

[Tranz]

It may be because you don't allow anonymous users to comment, so we do not see the smilies. See what happens when you allow anonymous users to comment.

Well, I deleted all my cookies earlier and now I can get back on to the Admin part of the gallery... what do I do now?

Do you mean you cannot log in?

I'm not understanding the situation. Could you please provide more details?

[PARADiSEiS808]

Yes. I can't log in as the Admin anymore... I don't remember choosing a name or password before either.

When you installed Coppermine you chose a username and password.  If you don't remember it, use phpMyAdmin to look at the cpg132_users table.

[PARADiSEiS808]

Whats PHPMyAdmin? Is it like the /admin.php page?

Ask your host about it.

[PARADiSEiS808]

I can't get ahold of my host. That's why I'm looking for a new one. So am I screwed?

[kegobeer]

No.  You can download phpmyadmin and upload it to your site.  You'll just have to configure it.  Instructions can be found at phpmyadmin.net.  You'll use the same MySQL login/password and host information that your host provided to you.

If you don't get a reply from your host within an hour, I would start looking around for another host.  Just my personal opinion.

[PARADiSEiS808]

I haven't been able to get ahold of my host for like 4 months now. I need a new one!

[kegobeer]

I agree - you need to switch.  There are posts on our forum that discuss good hosts.  Find one and make the switch.  Remember, you get what you pay for.

[PARADiSEiS808]

I don't plan on paying for one. I just got another host but she doesn't know much about MySQL database so this should be interesting..

[Tranz]

I guess you don't believe time is money...

Because in the end, you can't take the money with you. But you can choose how you spend your time.

[kegobeer]

If a host isn't knowledgable about all things web (php, perl, cgi, html, mysql, etc) then don't waste your time with that host.  Believe me, that huge waste of time just isn't worth it.  When you have a problem, you want a host that can solve it for you immediately.

But hey, it's your site and your problem.

This is now a useless thread.  Locking it.
