Correct DB details produce “Database server was not found” (Prestashop Installation)
- by Steve
At stage 3 of the Prestashop Installation, I enter the DB details which I know to be correct, and I receive the error:
Database server was not found. Please
verify the login, password, and
database server name fields.
The server is localhost, and I have verified the database name and username. Why can Prestashop not find the server?
This occurs when choosing InnoDB and MyIsam.
If I change the server from localhost to the public hostname I receive the same error.
