Hello:

I'm having an issue with a new installation. The following gallery: https://hillstreetblues.samskara.org/gallery running 1.6.15 stable is currently showing the following:

Coppermine critical error:
Unable to connect to database !

I'm not sure why it's doing this, but I had it running on 1.6.12, but when I updated this happened. It's a new install. I'm not sure if it's due to the fact it's on a subdomain, but .....  Thanks for any help you can give.

This issue is solved. What I did was delete all files and recreate the mysql database. Then using the cpg installer stub, I installed version 1.6.12 and added the old database. Then uploaded 1.6.15 files via FTP. Then I ran the updater and finally was able to have things working.
