"table doesn't exist" errors after 1.3.7 install

I'm sorry to be so thick, but could you tell me exactly what to check? My brain is fried.

1. database name, user, password, host in includes/configure.php
2. database prefix in includes/configure.php

3. log into phpMyAdmin and open the database with the name matching the database name from #1

4. look for the tables whose prefix starts with the prefix from #2

5. peek inside the 'customers" table (with the corresponding prefix in #2 / #4).
See what data is in there.

That's what Zen Cart is looking at.

If it's empty, then you've got things misconfigured and therefore it's not reading the right data.


Then, go find the "real" data. Then set your configure.php settings to match the appropriate database name, user, password, host, prefix from where the 'real' data is.

Or hire someone to do it for you.
