Title: Gallery stopped working
Post by: macnyc on July 01, 2006, 06:12:50 pm: I was installed with Coppermine 1.4.4 and all was fine. Suddenly this week the gallery stopped working. All other pages on the site work fine. In Firefox I get just a white/blank page. In IE I get a page can not be displayed error. I upgraded to 1.4.8 - still the same problem. I also restarted my server and mysql. Any advice?

Post by: macnyc on July 04, 2006, 06:22:49 pm: I installed a new version on a new site - just to start fresh and see if I can get a clean install working. It did not install I added the mysql info on the install page and it just went to a blank screen. I have 5 installations and they all stopped working. I think I had a server update that must have caused an incompatibility.

The clean install is:

Anyone know of issues with current versions of php? or other prereqs?

Post by: Sami on July 04, 2006, 06:34:29 pm: - do you create empty database?
- do you create a user with full privilages and bind it to db?
- do you provide correct password for that user?
- do you provide correct database name ?
- do you know your Mysql server host is "localhost" ?

Post by: Sami on July 04, 2006, 07:13:05 pm: I got 404 not found after submiting the form!!!
even if I post clean form (I did not put anything on it !!!)
do you have any kind of security mod on your server ?
- and also I think you should check your db username as your hosting control panel is Cpanel that user should be X_Y (X is your main username for Cpanle and Y is your new user)

Post by: macnyc on July 04, 2006, 07:20:16 pm: I do not have a security mod - I had 4 coppermine sites working - and they all stopped -I did not modify anything - although my server is set up for auto updates.

I verified my username - and it is correct x_y - but I still get 404.

Any modifications to php that could have occured?

Post by: Joachim Müller on July 04, 2006, 07:21:36 pm: Ask your webhost about the changes/updates. If you're self-hosted, look up the logs and roll back the changes step by step to find the culprit.

Post by: macnyc on July 23, 2006, 08:19:50 pm: My webhost company solved the problem:

"If you upgraded mysql you will have to also recompile php"

I recompiled php and all is well.

Thanks all for your support.

You failed to say so in the first place - I have another definition of the word "suddenly":

Would have saved us a lot of time if you had posted this in the first place.
