Ok so I have installed my first gallery3, and would like to setup mySQL. I have setup My SQL and I receive the following error: Gallery 3 needs a MySQL database. The values provided work for most setups, so if you're confused try clicking continue. Once I enter my login info and click continue, i get the following error: We were unable to connect to your MySQL server with the username and password that you provided. Please go back and try again! I verify that MySQL is up and running and my login details are working. My server is hosted with a hosting company, does anyone know what else i may try? Your help is appreciated. ________________________________

URL to your gallery3 installation? I ask because your signature contains a link to an online store and a known user and moderator's donate link -s |

Thanks floridave! I have reconfimed my login details and all was correct. My hosting company mentioned that there was a permission problem with the database and a new one needed to be created. Ok, good that is done and my installation was done in 5 mins after that. Now I have a very strange problem. I have uploaded 4 photo's to the gallery, but on the 5th photo i receive the below error: Thinking that i am missing a codec of some sort, i susequently installed ffmpeg codec and still receive the above error. I have also screen shot the error. Thanks, |

You can try the no ffmpeg module if you can't get ffmpeg installed. Dave |

All ffmpeg is for is generating the thumb from movies. Dave |

I am not sure if this is the right place to post this? So, I have uploaded a few photo's. I notice that the thumbnail view does not contain the photo to the correct size (see screenshot) I have also checked around in settings without any luck, could there be a setting that i missed? Thanks, ________________________________ |

Probably a theme issue that might have never been addressed. Dave |
