Need help transferring database --> Database needs to be loaded onto 2 other sites.

No, the "prefix" would be the letters added to the beginning of all the names of your tables inside your database. It has NOTHING to do with the name of the database itself.

It's simple. Table names might be like this:
"address_book"
"customers"
"orders"

and if you have a "prefix" added to the beginning of those names, they might look like:
"myprefix_address_book"
"myprefix_customers"
"myprefix_orders"
... in which case your prefix would be "myprefix_" ... as shown in the DB_PREFIX setting in *that* server's configure.php files.

Awesome.

Okay now how do I go back and change the prefix after I've already installed Zen Cart.

I finally figured out what the problem is!

Thanks so much!

Is there a reason not to install clean, using the right prefix, now that the light has come on?

I already started a clean install.

Thanks.
