Odd MySQL error

Last night I had just completed a fresh install of zenphoto, added a library of images, and was in the process of customizing the gallery itself.

After re-naming one of the image folders via the zenphoto administration, I returned to the admin menu and was confronted with this:

Zenphoto encountered an error
MySQL Error: The database is connected, but MySQL returned the error Access denied for user 'caming_app'@'10.%' to database 'caming_IC_20100719_222003' when Zenphoto tried to select the database caming_IC_20100719_222003

I logged into mySQL admin and, sure enough, the entire database seems to have disappeared. I've never run into this before.

Is there a way to "re-install," without having to upload the 1,000 or so files again? Anyone know why this might have happened?

Thanks,

Nate

    Well, Zenphoto does not delete databases. Sure you did not do that accidentally?

    As to the last question yes, just create a database again and rerun setup. Zenphoto is filesystem based and will recognize any images present in folders within the root albums folder.

    yup, i'm absolutely sure i didn't accidentally delete it, which is why i thought i should bring it to your attention. i was *literally* returning to the zen admin main menu (after re-naming an image folder via the zen admin) when i was presented with the error. again, i've never seen anything like it before.

    i'll recreate.

    thanks,
