Hi,

I've use the older version of ZP before but I am trying to upload a new version for my friends website and it's not working: I am getting an error for my database connections, here is what I have in my zp-config file

Also here is a screen shot of what I'm seeing on the setup.php page: http://www.obcm-no.org/images/ss_for_zenphoto.jpg

I'm doubled check my DB settings so I know they are right. I have also tried deleting the .htacess file. And I have also tried putting the database variables in with the prefix and without the prefix.

P.S. Also tried a fresh install..

Still nothing..

Please excuse me, I'm using the latest version 1.1.5

What was the older version of zenphoto?

Hi,

I was referring to my own website. I believe I install whatever version of ZP was stable 8 months ago. I can't exactly remember.

But the problems I am having is not with an upgrade. It is on another website with a fresh install of 1.1.5

Thank You.

Well, the error you are seeing is saying that setup cannot connect to the database. This is usually caused by one (or more) of the database configuration items being wrong.

If this is a new install, you should be starting with an empty zp-config.php file. The one you have could cause you problems down the line because of the allowed tags array which in no longer supposed to be there.

Ok, So would you recommend downloading a fresh copy of ZP and using a fresh version of zp-config.php?

Thank You

Just delete the zp-config.php file and re-run setup. A new fresh one will be created. But, I doubt that is the problem. Something is wrong with connecting to your database. Setup is not being allowed access with the credentials you are supplying.
