admin login error: ERROR: Failed to save the settings in the database.

ERROR: Failed to save the settings in the database. Please verify your database connection.

I know my database connection is correct. It went through the entire process and failed at this point.

Her domain was not set up when I created the web site, so I created everything locally first, but I changed the Power CMS connection to the server settings before I uploaded it to the server. Did this cause problem? Everything that I'm entering looks correct to me. Thank you!

make sure that the PCMS tables are being created in the database, you can create the tables manually by running the /install_cms/scripts/db.sql file.

I had created all of the tables locally, as the domain hadn't been set up yet, so, yes ... all the tables had been created. I copied and pasted the data into the MySQL table on the server. Now what do I need to try? Thanks!

Every time I type in the URL with /admin_cms/index.php, it redirects me to install_cms/logininfo.php. I can't get around it.

I did. Same error message. I even tried in a new browser - same error message. I can't get beyond this point. Do I just delete the database on the server and start over? Not sure what to do at this point.

I completely emptied the DB on the server, went through the installation in a different browser that I had not used for this site previously, and still got the same error message.

In the meantime, I'm going to put the DB tables back on the server. Thank you.
