Can't find database

[gretzlertech]

I am receiving the following error:

1146 Table 'scrap16_store.configuration' doesn't exist
in:
[select configuration_key as cfgkey, configuration_value as cfgvalue from configuration]

Now I know the database exists, I put it there. So does that table, I checked. My configure.php file is configured correctly (path, username, password) and it works on my localhost but not online. Any idea as to why?

Is it possible that the host your d/b is on is different from your web server? (In other words, that HTTP(S)_SERVER and DB_SERVER should be different?)

BTW, if you're running on localhost and on a remote site (certainly a good practice), be sure you have two sets of configure.php files so you don't break one environment when fixing the other. I just keep a subdirectory under includes and admin/includes for production configure.php files.

Good luck,
