configuration error message

In the process of upgrading my mysql database, upon submitting my database setup info, I have encountered an error and I don't know what is needed to fix it:

1146 Table 'tfink_zc1.configuration' doesn't exist
in:
[update configuration set configuration_value='/home/tfink/public_html/mysite.com/admin/cache' where configuration_key = 'SESSION_WRITE_DIRECTORY']

So what am I missing, I checked my database file in my cpanel utilities, and it says I have a tfink_zc1.zen.configuration that is OK. Would that be what I should aim for and change this other 'tfink_zc1.configuration'? and where?

1146 Table 'tfink_zc1.configuration' doesn't existthat's telling you that it's looking for a table named "configuration" in the database called "tfink_zc1".

That's showing that you have a database called "tfink_zc1" and a table named "zen.configuration".

The difference there is the "zen." prefix, which tells me that whatever script you're trying to run doesn't know about the prefix that you're actually using. If it's a script that comes with ZC itself, then your configure.php files don't properly contain the DB_PREFIX value set to "zen." to match the prefixes that you're using.
