Sure, its a bit long....  and note that I _did_ check to see if "$prefixeTable" was defined, and found it defined in "database.inc.php" like this:  "$prefixeTable = 'piwigo_';"

//
//  - date_available : the date of the adding to the gallery
//  - file : the name of the file
//  - id : element identifier
//  - date_creation : date of element creation
//
// Once you've chosen which field(s) to use for ordering, you must chose the
// ascending or descending order for each field.  examples :
//
// 1. $conf['order_by_custom'] = " order by date_available desc, file asc";
//    will order pictures by date_available descending & by filename ascending
//
// 2. $conf['order_by_custom'] = " order by file asc";
//    will only order pictures by file ascending without taking into account

Hoping for a solution.
Thanks.

Hmmm, I didn't copy anything, I just went into the Administration GUI and told it to update.  AFTER that was done, and failed, I copied the "piwigo_users.*" stuff, but I did not copy any config files.  And it was working before.  Perhaps I copied it in the original installation back 3 years ago?  I don't recall.

I'm not sure how to do what you ask since I've always configured using the GUI, so I don't really know what values are "specific" to my gallery.

I must have copied it back when I first set up the app 3 years ago.  I removed it and put a blank file in its place.  There were a couple of complaints, (about $conf['use_exif'] and $conf['show_exif'] not being set to false), so I updated it with those settings, and everything seems to be happy now, including now using the "piwigo_users" file instead of trying to use plain "users".

Thanks very much for your help, I appreciate it.   I think you can mark this issue "resolved".
