change the access to the database
« on: December 02, 2009, 05:13:59 pm »

Hello,

My host had to change the password used to access the database. Since then, of course, it's not possible to access the galery anymore. I was wondering in which file do I find the variables used to login to the database...

include/config.inc.php

This is the sample (include/config.inc.php.sample)
Code: [Select]
?php
// Coppermine configuration file

// MySQL configuration
$CONFIG['dbserver'] =     'localhost';   // Your databaseserver
$CONFIG['dbuser'] =       'root';        // Your mysql username
$CONFIG['dbpass'] =       '';            // Your mysql password
$CONFIG['dbname'] =       'coppermine';  // Your mysql database name


// MySQL TABLE NAMES PREFIX
$CONFIG['TABLE_PREFIX'] = 'cpg141x_';
?>

<!--Coppermine Photo Gallery 1.4.10 (stable)-->
If this -> http://www.fred-h.net/Coppermine/ is your gallery. Update immediately, you are vulnerable to hackers.

OK, htank you, I found it... and changed the password. Then replaced the file on the server. But I still have this porblem :
Code: [Select]
Coppermine critical error:
Unable to connect to database !

MySQL said: Accès refusé pour l'utilisateur: 'jeunes'@'@localhost' (mot de passe: OUI)




Update immediately, you are vulnerable to hackers.
That's not the galery i'm talking about, it's in another site. But thank you for the reminder anyway, I'll do it ASAP.

Cannot see en "edit" button for my previous post (surely I'm too tired), but here we are... I made the upgrade on my own site as advised before, it went great.

But as for the galery I?m speaking about ( http://www.ecublens.ch/jeunes/photos ), I still have the same message, And it also somes in if I try to update : same message. By the way, with that username and password, I have a Joomla site on the same database running smoothly and I have no problem accessing it through phpMyAdmin...

The error is obvious. You have an extra @ before 'localhost'.

Except that this @ doesn't appear in my config file...  ???
