Restoring my Gallery

<< < (2/4) > >>

phill104:
Then you will need to upgrade to 1.6.x and that version of PHP is not supported by CPG1.5.x

The gallery was upgraded before I downloaded the SQL for the transfer. I have tried this with files from CPG1.6x and it's still giving me the error. I even tried at one point deleting the config file and installing it as if it was all new. It let me install the gallery. I just tried doing what was said in the thread you sent me and I'm still getting the same error.

What I am trying to do is just restore all the albums and files that were within my old gallery. I know that involves downloading the SQL and I did that. I added all the files back into the gallery and didn't install a new gallery. I did that on another site and it didn't work either. This one I uploaded everything as is and then through the phpadmin uploaded the SQL from my other gallery. That is when I go that error. Then I tried all the things I listed above and nothing.

All I want to do is retore all the albums and files that I had in the gallery without having to go through and do it manually. It seems I have done something wrong.

You can't use the include/config.inc.php file from your old server on the new one without changing the values to coincide with with the database to which you imported the SQL data.


--- Code: ---// Coppermine configuration file
// Database configuration
$CONFIG['dbtype'] =   'mysqli';        // Your database type
$CONFIG['dbserver'] = 'localhost';     // Your database server
$CONFIG['dbuser'] =   'old-dbuser';    // Your database username   <-- these must match
$CONFIG['dbpass'] =   'old-password';  // Your database password.  <-- the values/names
$CONFIG['dbname'] =   'old-dbname';    // Your database name       <-- set on the new host

// DATABASE TABLE NAMES PREFIX
$CONFIG['TABLE_PREFIX'] = 'cpg16x_';

--- End code ---

To make sure I am understanding what you are saying. The user name and password for the database should be the same, but the database can be new, or should it be the old one?

I have tried with the old database information and new database information and both give me the error.
