    Default Renamed the zc1 database and now I get "Hello. Thank you for loading Zen Cart" ...

    I have successfully installed ZenCart using the default database name and configured it completely etc...

    I have backed up everything (files and db) and removed the original installation.

    I have reinstalled it into another location and renamed the db.

    NOTE: This new installation has not been modified in any way except for the configuration.php files.

    I then modified my configuration.php files in the includes and admin/includes folders to change the db name.
    I then uploaded the changed configuration files.

    Now when I go to my ZenCart store and admin panel, I get the following:

    Hello. Thank you for loading Zen Cart™.
    You are seeing this page for one or more reasons:...

    What other files are required for me to point to the same database with only its name changed?

    Default Re: Renamed the zc1 database and now I get "Hello. Thank you for loading Zen Cart" ..

    Update: I overcame this issue by installing the download version of ZenCart 1.9f.

    ZenCart will allow you to install with your own db name, but the Fantastico installer version was not allowing this.

    This issue was resolved by:
    -download the zip file from ZenCart
    -Unzip it on your host
    -Manually create your db in MyPHPadmin
    -modify and upload your modified configuration files into includes and admin/includes
    -run the install
    -finally export and import your previous database tables

    This thread is resolved.
