Moving from a windows server to linux server

Disclaimer - I am not a professional.

I followed the tutorial on moving my store from a current windows server to my other webhost that is linux. I even checked off each line as I did it. I even reimported the database 3 times.

I am getting the following error when I go to itswinetime . com:

1146 Table 'whl_zc3.zen_db_cache' doesn't exist
in:
[db_cache table]

What little detail did i overlook?

Just did a complete reinstall. Everything works fine until I import the database.

Same error as above... ugh

Help?

Re: Moving from a windows server to linux server

And what prefix was used on the old server vs the new one? (Step 2a.)

gulpI cheated.

The other webhost uses fantastico so I just went that route.

Sounds like i need to delete everything and start with a fresh install from scratch.

Or make the prefix on the new site match the one used in the database you imported. That's what step 2a ultimately means.
