I'm sure thsi has happened to so many people, and it's probably so easy, but coppermine isn't letting me access my gallery at all. It's something with my SQL, but I can't figure out how to fix it.
this is the error message I get.
Coppermine critical error:
Unable to connect to database !
MySQL said: Access denied for user 'vivan3'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
Can someone help?
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: I found this same discussion on another thread, however, i still can't figure it out. I found the config.php folder on my host site and when I go in to edit it it says:
$redirect = "admin.php";
$message = <<< EOT
You are trying to access Coppermine's <a href="admin.php">config page</a> using an outdated link - the file config.php has been renamed to admin.php. You probably updated your site and haven't changed your theme as suggested in the <a href="docs/theme/">theme upgrade guide</a>.<br />
You are now being redirected to the actual page you were looking for.
How do I know what the outdated link is and how can I change it?
You're not supposed to look at http://yoursite.tld/your_coppermine_folder/config.php, but http://yoursite.tld/your_coppermine_folder/include/config.inc.php - I'm sure that this has been mentioned in the other thread as well.
err, yeah i got it before your comment, thanks anyway
Then you should have resolved your thread. Would have saved me a couple of minutes needed to type my answer. Marking thread as "solved".
