Prefixed database tables not completing install

[silent11]

I have prefixed all of my db tables with 'shop_'. I edited oscommerce.sql as well as database_tables.php, however when I get to /install/install.php?step=7 I get the following error:

 

 

A test connection made to the database was NOT successful.

 

The error message returned is:

 

Table 'commerce.configuration' doesn't exist

If you require help with your database server settings, please consult your hosting company.

 

I can go into a terminal window and see the tables are created, all with the proper prefix, even 'shop_configuration'. Where is the install script getting the configuration table name from? Is that hard coded??? Why isn't the script looking for 'shop_configuration'?

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

There is no reason you should have edited either the sql file or especially your database_tables.php file. What ever problem you are having is not going to be fixed by the changes you made and making changes to your database_tables.php you have pretty much assured yourself that your site will not work. You need to replace the files with fresh ones and start again.

I have the same problem! On my SQL-Server im running other scripts with the same tablenames so i must add a prefix to use osc. I did exactly the same, edit database_tables.php and oscommerce.sql. All tables are created correctly, but my error is : Table 'marookdb.configuration' doesn't exist

 

marookdb is the name of my database. Could it be, that inside the php-script a wrong enviroment variable is used to set the config ?

 

Any ideas ???
