Database Connection Error after updating from Craft 2 to 3 Good evening all,
I am updating a small site from Craft 2 to 3, and after following the instructions in the documents, I loaded up the backend of my site and was greeted with the install screen.
I know that this typically means that the DB_TABLE_PREFIX is improperly set, but I triple-checked and I'm 99% certain that it's correct. I double-checked with my Craft 2, which looks like
// The prefix to use when naming tables. This can be no more than 5 characters.
    'tablePrefix' =&gt; 'craft',

And matched it to my .env file:
# The prefix that should be added to generated table names (only necessary if multiple things are sharing the same database)
DB_TABLE_PREFIX=craft

I also checked for a craft_info table, and that is present. The version listed in the version column is 2.9.2, if that makes a difference.
I am unable to login to my admin panel, or view my website now. I get the following when viewing my website:
Database Connection Error – craft\errors\DbConnectException
Craft CMS can’t connect to the database with the credentials in config/db.php.
↵
Caused by: Database Exception – yii\db\Exception


Any help is greatly appreciated!

Does the table prefix value in you .env file need to be in quotes? eg
DB_TABLE_PREFIX=&quot;craft&quot;
