Did a new install of Wamp64 with user and album DB.  Then opened a file in www called Fotoalbum In there the unzipped Piwigo files. Via Admin loaded the index php page for getting the DB formated by Piwigo.  Many failures
as before - the normal index file of piwigo picture enclosed. No luck sofar. Thanks for your help as I want a test environment before going for the hosting services

I have a windows PC with Wamp 3.X64 wich comes with MYSQL 5.7.9.  Understand I have to step back to earlier version of MYSQL  Is Apache : 2.4.9 MySQL : 5.6.17 PHP : 5.5.12 PHPMyAdmin : 4.1.14 SqlBuddy : 1.3.3 XDebug : 2.2.5 all right with you? Thanks

Thanks Flop,  Stepped back with WAMP to an earlier release ( with stuff as described above ) and got an Piwigo album now working. One error when installing : Mailer error; Could not initiate mail function - see attached picture for your information.  However when opening the Gallery it seems to work just fine. Did not test any mail function yet . Thanks for your support and instant help as I am now on my way again.

For the moment I would like to experiment on my PC/Dreamweaver/Wamp combi with the possibilities of the Piwigo album. Would like to start a family album with shared and private sections managed by the registrated user like father,mother and child.  Still have one trigger error when opening the album :

( ! ) Warning: script_basename "tmp13in1uj" unknown in C:\wamp\www\fotoalbum\piwigo\include\section_init.inc.php on line 163

Does not influence the working. It disappears as soon as I use an album function. Only appears when opening the first time, hope this info helps.  Cheers Peter

Thanks for the advise Flop. I ignore for the moment the mail and trigger-error as the functionality will be working when I get into your Piwigo hosting services. For the moment I like to test the multi person possibilities. That is independent log-in of by the Administrator assigned person which can create their own or share photo's with the other in the family.  So Group = Family with 3 users Father, Mother and Son.  Hope when you upload that the logged in person can indicate share or private and manage their own albums with respective photo's. That's all  - maybe you have a seen a example somewhere?  Thanks for all your help and quick responses Really helpfull.

Thanks Flop25
