hello friend, newb here. I’m having a first-time login error, I have no idea how to sort out this,
error;
Silverstripe Framework requires a “database” key in DB::getConfig(). Did you forget to set SS_DATABASE_NAME or SS_DATABASE_CHOOSE_NAME in your environment?
The above still have fancy double quotes (also called smart quotes). It does not matter if you use single or double quotes, but they must be plain/straight/dumb quotes: whatever program you are using in editing text it is not the right tool.
# Your first message, smart single quotes: wrong
SS_DATABASE_SERVER=‘localhost’
# Your second message, smart double quotes: wrong
SS_DATABASE_SERVER=“localhost”
# Plain single quote: right
SS_DATABASE_SERVER='localhost'
# Plain double quote: right
SS_DATABASE_SERVER="localhost"
This is another issue. Check your webserver logs and open a new topic here providing more info if you are unable to fix it by yourself (I bet this is due to a missing extension).
