Wow that was fast response. Fixed that now I see "Unable to write config file 'include/config.inc.php'"

Suggestions?

The first error was calling my database instance Gallery but it was actually called MySQL

The second error I fixed by manually editing the config.inc.php file with the new login name.

Sorry for wasting anyones time. I have been trying to get this going since last night!
