Im changing this configuration.but always the same message........if a change dbuser in the error message appear like 'fotosdon'@'localhost'
// MySQL configuration
$CONFIG['dbserver'] =                         'localhost';        // Your databaseserver
$CONFIG['dbuser'] =                         'fotosdonosti';        // Your mysql username
$CONFIG['dbpass'] =                     'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx';                // Your mysql password

Are you making the mySQL data up or are you sure that it is correct? I suggest asking your webhost for support.

The process....
1.- I lose mi pass and username to access by ftp to my web page to upload files.
2.- They send to me the information.  my Domain, ip number, username and pass.
3.- Ip number and pass are diferent than other time but runs in Ftp.
4.- I cant enter to my web appear Coppermine critical error.
5.- I configure include/config.inc.php using with combination of password username and database names...
6.- Web don´t runs.
7.-i make new user and password for the database with all privileges
8.-.......dont work.

Question:
1.- Why appear all time "fotosdon" if i change in include.inc.php? MySQL said: Access denied for user 'fotosdon'@'localhost'

2.-

Obviously the username "fotosdon" is the mySQL username that you specified in include/config.inc.php.
As I suggested: ask your webhost for support - maybe they changed something in your mySQL setup when they recovered your lost FTP access data.

I think that if i put dbUsername  fotosdon with the correct password and database name.... the gallery have to work??

You can't retrieve the information using phpmyadmin, because the passwords are stored encrypted.

Again: You have to ask your webhoster.
