[Solved]: Critical Error Problem

[the_anubis123]

Hi,

I installed my gallery and it has been working fine for 6 months then all of a sudden it doesnt work, the page loads this:

Coppermine critical error:
Unable to connect to database !

MySQL said: Access denied for user 'natalieg_copp1'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

Ive been told my my host when i submitted a ticket to reinstall but i dont want to loose my theme and all my pictures. any help?

Here's a link to my gallery

Don't reinstall, all the error means is that your are not able to connect to your MySQL server because your login details are incorrect, you need to correct the details in the file at - include/config.inc.php.

the file has this

<?php

    define ( 'SILLY_SAFE_MODE' , 1 ) ;

    $CONFIG['dbserver'] = 'xxxx' ;
    $CONFIG['dbuser'  ] = 'xxxx' ;
    $CONFIG['dbpass'  ] = 'xxxxx' ;
    $CONFIG['dbname'  ] = 'xxxx'   ;

    $CONFIG['TABLE_PREFIX'] = 'xxxx' ;

?>


what info do i need to fix?

I edited your post above to remove the sensitive information. You should never post database username and password publicly. I highly recommend to change your database password as soon as possible.
