Hi folks,
new to piwigo (just installing right now) but I had an stupid error (me stupid - not app stupid) that took me ~ 1 hour to find which may be removed to save others the time :)

On a fresh box I forgott to install php-mysql. Everything else was ok. The Installatio just stopped without a message or anything. Going through the code I found this one:

$link = @mysql_connect($host, $user, $password);

in "functions_mysql.inc.php". Because there was no "mysql_connect" on my box this failed with exit. Because of the "@" there was no message. Because of both I got a whie screen.

Some sanity checks would have saved me a lot of time ^_^.
