Do I have to Re-Install
« on: February 22, 2006, 11:47:59 pm »

earlier today my lovely hosting company (btw this is the 3rd time) had some issues with their setup for PHP. Visitors instead of getting a welcome page on my gallery, got an Open or Save box. Many thought I was sending them a virus.  Now supposedly all is "working;" however no pages show up at all. I've put up a "site down" till this is fixed.  Do I have to delete everything and re-install coppermine?

obviously, things are not working as expected, so I suggest asking your webhost for support. To see if a re-install would cure things, create a fresh install on the same domain, using another coppermine folder and mysql table prefix temporarily.

Create a php file with this:
Code: [Select]
<?php
phpinfo
();
?>

Try to view it in your browser and see if you get a blank page.

I created a file called info.php and was able to view the php info for my webhost as it pertains to my site. Does that mean whatever they did caused some error, and can I fix this on my side?
By the way, they only give 2 mysql databases per account it seems, so I'll have to delete one to create the "temp" coppermine gallery. :'(  Any suggestions?

coppermine doesn't need a mysql database exclusively, it's safe to install coppermine using an existing mysql database that already contains tables. That's why coppermine uses a table prefix.
In the future, please respect the "one question per thread" policy.

Pardon if it was
