Hello,
I have command line access only to my sql database on wordpress vps. I am ssh’ing into it and was wondering if I don’t have phpMyAdmin is there any way to view the table prefix for my database.
I need this value because I am installing Wordpress and getting an error that my table prefix value must not be empty.
The default is ‘wp_’ from wp-config.php however it will not take for the installation.
It may be a different value if I could view it.
Do I need phpMyAdmin to view this ?
Thank you very much for any reply.
