TaraMcGrath Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Afternoon Ladies and Gents, I was hoping someone may be able to help? I am currently setting up PrestaShop on my localhost. Everything seems to be running swimmingly as I am now set up on the PrestaShop "Installation Assistant". However when I hit the page "Configure your database by filling in the following fields" I am greeted with the message "Database server is not found. Please verify the login, password and server fields". Could someone point me in the right direction? I am using MAMP and am unsure of the plan of attack as I have set up a moodle site before and have not experianced this error. Many thanks, T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaraMcGrath Posted May 20, 2013 Author Share Posted May 20, 2013 Morning! I just had a look into installing the PHPMyAdmin and have found this file is already existing in the MAMP folders. Any other ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
