Hi, I'm having a hard time trying to figure out how to get my gallery working again. Formerly, http://dognamedtrout.com/g2codex/ mapped to /xxxhostaccount/public_html/dognamedtrout/g2codex/ (as a parked domain). Now http://dognamedtrout.com/g2codex/ is served from /xxxnewaccount/public_html/g2codex/

I tried copying over the install and database and changing the config.php paths. The new install shows no photos. When I go to the old install to try and back things up, none of the paths work (http://xxxhostaccount.com/dognamedtrout/g2codex/). How can I login, back things up, and copy over a working install? None of these FAQ links work.

Frustrated,
Nick

You may try to install again with the new setup while keeping your photos and such.

Point to the same folder for storage and to the same database/tables... It will probably say that the tables are already there and ask you if you wish to use them or erase them. You can try to use them :-)

BEFORE doing that th, I would make a copy of the gallery2 folder AND backup the entire DB just in case it goes south.

Let us know, how it goes ;)
