I've come back to Zenphoto after using very,very early releases (think 2008). Did install from download.

Database credentials in configuration file
Error!
MySQL reported: Access denied for user (I changed IP for this posting)'admin'@'00.163.128.0/255.00.00.0' to database 'zenphotos'
What's wrong?
Fill in the information below and setup will attempt to update your configuration file.
I used the host and db name from long ago, possibly hoping the pictures will reappear (as a test, I want to start new album)
Database credentials in configuration file
Error!
MySQLi reported: Access denied for user 'administrator'@'69.163.128.0/255.255.128.0' to database 'zenphotos'
The "fill in the info..." disappeared but this error is left. I know the others are warnings that I'll ask my host about.
CREATED! There were 4 or 5 image files that I was told to delete but kept being told they existed afterwards but setup proceeded. Admin account created. I'm now going to see what's in store.
Problem was created by my database and database hostname not being associated with each other at my web host end. (My paraphrasing).
