Hi everyone!

I need some help. The vistors of my website reported this error when they try to access the gallery - www.kevinjonasonline.com/gallery

===================================

Coppermine critical error:
Unable to connect to database !

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

==================================

Anyone have any idea what's going on?

Make sure that your mysql data are correct by downloading (using your FTP app) and then editing include/config.inc.php with a plain text editor (notepad.exe is fine). Make sure that the mysql data you got from your webhost are correct. Ask your webhost for suppport if you're not sure.

After having fixed that you need to update your gallery (as suggested in the docs that come with coppermine): you're running cpg1.4.19, while the most recent stable release currently is cpg1.4.25. Note that updating won't fix your connection issues and is not related.
