my gallery, www.montel-porter.org/gallery was working perfectly but 2 days ago i got a message saying "Fatal error :"
i've contacted my host and they said it could be a coding problem, but is there anyone here that could help me? it would be greatly appreciated.

What version were you using?

[François Keller]

enable debug mode http://coppermine-gallery.net/tutorial/debug_mode.php

[Joachim Müller]

What version were you using?

http://www.montel-porter.org/gallery/sql/update.sql  shows she's using cpg1.4.14

@smoxsamantha: do as François suggested to enable debug_mode to get a more detailed error message. Then google for that eror message. If you can't find an answer, reply here.

You'll need to upgrade as well: cpg1.4.14 is outdated - it's mandatory to upgrade to the most recent stable, which currently is cpg1.4.19. Upgrading may or may not fix your issue as well, depending on the reason for the error message. Probably you'll have a database table corruption though, which won't be solved by upgrading.

thanks for replying. i don't know how to access debug mode without going into config, cause my gallery isn't showing up at all, theres no way i can get any access to it. i'll try upgrading now

i don't know how to access debug mode without going into config

Just follow the link François posted: how to enable debug_mode with the coppermine config panel inaccessible is being explained there. That's why François posted that link!

[smoxsamantha]

INSERT INTO CPG_config VALUES ('debug_notice', '0');

do i change the 0 to a 1 or something?

Watch the tutorial video completely and pay attention to all the text balloons and you wil know.

ok, i have done that and the debug message says

While executing query "delete from `montelpo_gallery`.cpg148_sessions where time<1233199433 and remember=0;" on Resource id #5

mySQL error: Table './montelpo_gallery/cpg148_sessions' is marked as crashed and should be repaired

[François Keller]

mySQL error: Table './montelpo_gallery/cpg148_sessions' is marked as crashed and should be repaired

the error message is clear.
The cpg148_sessions is corrupted and must be repaired. You can do this via phpmyadmin

[smoxsamantha]

really? thats great! im not exactly a phpmyadmin whiz, so could anyone give me any help with doing this?

[Hein Traag]

This is the support board for cpg. For in depth support for phpmyadmin/mysql errors consult your hoster if you are not able to do it yourself.

[François Keller]

in phpmyadmin, select the table to repair, and in the listbox on the bottom select repair the table before validation from the form
