I don't know if any one else already posted this, but we were able to get coppermine installed but there seems to be a missing file- albmgr ????
#1 What does this file do?
#2 How can we correct this?
#3 Is it anything to be concerned about?
It's the album manager. Where exactly did you download Coppermine from ?
Download: albmgr.php (http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/*checkout*/coppermine/stable/albmgr.php)
I didn't download it- I was working w/ some one else getting their site set up and she mentioned this issue to me. But I see she has already posted in this forum regarding it- so she may have already cleared up the issue ;) I'll see if I can find out where they downloaded it from for you (I work in a software support dept. so I know how info like that is important)
Thanks for your help!
They don't know where they downloaded it from- sorry.
Now we got the upgrade installed- but it caused an error in the photogallery
Here is the error:
Coppermine critical error:
Unable to connect to database !
MySQL said: Access denied for user 'enchante_enchant'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
Could this be permissions related to the folder- like the upgrade files didn't inherit permissions from the parent directory or something? Sorry if I am way of base- but I have never seen this program and I am just a third party trying to help them out.
It means the mysql username and/or password are wrong. Download and verify the contents of include/config.inc.php.
Thanks- I will let her know :)
ok she really didn't understand what I told her to do- so can you please expand your answer a bit?
Would she need to go to computer management and the default web sites and make an adjustment there? I have never used mysql so I am a bit lost. I do have limited experience w/ IIS which may be why I keep thinking she needs to go into the default websites under computer management.
Does she need to use a specific password or can she use what she likes as long as all passwords match?
Sorry I am so dense on your program, but like I said I have never seen it or used mysql, I've briefly read over the help text, but can't seem to find anything relating to her issue.
I've never usd IIS, so I can only give you general instructions. You need to open the file and make sure it contains a username and password that have been setup in mysql.
thanks- I'll let her know- I guess she hosts it on toastyhost and makes all the adjustments on there- she said she can't find that file- should she re-install the upgrade if she can't locate that config file?
Also should that config file have the same password as my sql or should that config file tell her what the username and password are for mysql?
the file include/config.inc.php doesn't exist on her hard-drive - it doesn't come with the coppermine package, but is created during initial install. She has to use her FTP-app and download the file from the webserver to her local PC, then use a plain text editor (notepad.exe is fine) to edit it. After changing it, she needs to upload it to the webserver again (overwriting the file on the server).
