After many times of troubleshooting Gallery Issues of blank Screen, not being able to access Site Admin page or any other page

Very Very Easy, just follow these 5 easy steps:
1: go to mysql where you create your database and select your galley database. (mysql, not phpMyadmin)
2. create a new user with admin rights for the gallery database
3. delete old user
4. readd old user name with original password
5. delete previous created user.

Retry entering to your Gallery, it should work properly now :-)

Broken uploads and bad modules or themes might cause I found out a very easy way to fix these issues by chance.

If the error was caused by a module or theme, use your FTP to remove the module or theme that created the problem and then follow the steps above.

Great now you can mess up Gallery as much as you want and if somethin goes wrong you can restore it easily. This fixes errors created while running Gallery it does not fix errors created by manually altering config,php or any other php fale for that matter.

Remember if you remove a theme that caused a problem when you open Gallery it will inform you that there is no theme selected and generousely ask you to change the theme or download a new one. Choose the option that better suites you.

Good luck and have fun with Gallery.
