Hello Everyone,
I've been struggling to install SS for about a day already... It seems that the install wizard doesn't work quite well with _ss_environment.php file. Specifically, the install wizard doesn't seem to recognize the constants "SS_DATABASE_SUFFIX" and "SS_DATABASE_PREFIX".
To elaborate on the issue, assuming my DB is named "ABC_foo_123" and I set SS_DATABASE_PREFIX and SS_DATABASE_SUFFIX with "ABC_" and "_123" respectively therefore leaving "foo" as the database name... if I use "foo" as the DB name, clicking "re-check requirements" button will result to an error stating that the DB doesn't exist. If I enter "ABC_foo_123" as the DB name, clicking "re-check requirements" will result to an "All requirements pass" status. However, if I click "Install Silverstripe", the next page will throw an error stating that "ABC_ABC_foo_123_123" DB does not exist.
Lastly, if I can set the DB host, username, password in _ss_environment.php file, why can't I define the DB name? I wonder what was the design consideration for not allowing the DB name to be defined.
FYI, I have followed this: http://doc.silverstripe.org/framework/en/topics/environment-management
I hope somebody can shed some light on this issue.
Thanks in advance, and kind regards to everybody.
