Edit include/config.inc.php and enter the details of your restored database.

[0CooL]

yes that's already there but still doesn't want to pull my pictures... going crazzy

i have installed fresh copy of coppermine
then i have replaced album folderd with my old one with pictures
then i have imported tables in mysql. but it still doesn't work don't know why i know it's something simple that i'm forgeting.

also i have created php.ini file does that have to do anything with my pictures now showing up in my coppermine.

I think you installed a new coppermine and set a certain db prefix... like cpg135_
then you restored your old db... but it has another prefix like cpg132_

now you need to edit config.inc.php and enter the prefix gf the old db... in this example cpg132_

have you done that??

[0CooL]

yes sir the prefix matches it's cpg132_

also i don't know if any mods that i did to my old coppermine would matter like Integration with phpbb.

then recheck if you've backed up your mysql db including data and not only the structure

[0CooL]

how do i do that, that's probably it.....

[Stramm]

with a tool like phpmyadmin you can explore your mysql db (and much more)

[Stramm]

or check your backup.sql file (open it in a text editor)

[0CooL]

yeah i think i did that, there is no comments or nothing like that.
 
when i get home i'll check more to see if i have one that's completly backed up....
