You need to enable debug mode, and then post the actual mysql error message you get.  If you can't get to your config section, you'll  have to use phpMyAdmin to change the cpgxxx_config table entry "debug_mode" from 0 to 1.

hi nibbler thanks for your prompt response, I go to phpmyadmin and i go on cpgxxx_config to edit debug_mode. I enter the value 1 and press enter but I get an error message like this "#1044 - Access denied for user: 'Sql38242@%' to database 'Sql38242_1' "
The value of the debug mode is always 0
Do you have any suggestions?

If your database username does not have the neccessary permissions to update your database you would need to resolve that with your host.

I suddenly started getting the same error - after turning on debug mode I found out what was wrong.

The directory I had my pictures in had a single quote (') in the directory name.  I had recently turned on "Display EXIF info" setting and completely forgot.

Anyway - I was getting an INSERT error when I would look at a picture in the offending directory - turns out - I have 60+ directories with single quotes - shame on me.

I modified 2 lines in /include/exif_php.inc.php, adding single quotes inside the double quotes - see the diff output below:
