CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

Rather than try to debug an install that is clearly already problematic, I tried a clean install with a newly created instance of Drupal. Once I set up the civicrm.settings.php file it seems as though I am able to connect to the database.

Now I get this error.

I think it's progress, right? ;->

unrecoverable error
    Sorry. A non-recoverable error has occurred.

    DB Error: no such table

    Database Error Code: Table 'flacorps_drp06.civicrm_preferences' doesn't exist, 1146

    Return to home page.

I didnlt know civicrm needed to run its own install routine first.

Problem solved.
