Within the last couple of weeks Gallery3 has stopped working, all I get an oops! screen from my browser. www . shiresoft.net / lwep / gallery3

Thanks for the prompt, I checked the log and found Gallery3 was unable to connect to my db upon further investigation nothing else MSQL related was working either. It seems my ISP changed my username during an upgrade (bless).
Problem now is how do I update my username on Gallery3?

I'm sure there is a better way, but here is one way:

edit database.php in gallery/var

Thanks everyone, the solution came after re-reading the error log. Solution: the user table was missing. I rebuilt the user table and all is now fine.
Thanks.
