Pineagirl Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 HiWhen I´m trying too install prestashop I´m geting a messege that says: "A Prestashop database already exists, please drop it or change the prefix." It´s probobly an old wordpressblog but I don´t know how too delete it. Ofcause have I deleted all the files on the server but obviously it´s still there.

nickny Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 You will need to go into your hosting provider, they should have some tool, that allows you to drop your database. Alternatively you can change the prefix of your new database tables to something other than ps_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomerg3 Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 You should open a phpmyadmin window (from your cPanel), go to the database you want to install Prestashop in, make sure there are no tables you need there, and then check all the boxes and in the dropdown at the bottom choose "drop tables" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patric Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 Why posting in "General discussion" as it obviously concerns "Installation" ?Topic moved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pineagirl Posted August 3, 2010 Author Share Posted August 3, 2010 Thanks I found the files on my hostpanel and a little help from the support ...and sorry that I didn´t posted this topic in the "installation" list... I´ve learned two things this time./Pineagirl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
