    Dear friends,

    I am totally new to Modx Revolution but I want to try its features. I have tried with Drupal but I want to see if Modx better corresponds to the website I want to build.
    When I try installing Modx Revolution, I end up having the three following problems.

    Warning: PDOStatement::execute() [pdostatement.execute]: SQLSTATE[3D000]: Invalid catalog name: 1046 No database selected in C:\xampp\htdocs\modx\core\xpdo\om\xpdoobject.class.php on line 236

    Warning: PDOStatement::execute() [pdostatement.execute]: SQLSTATE[3D000]: Invalid catalog name: 1046 No database selected in C:\xampp\htdocs\modx\core\xpdo\om\xpdoobject.class.php on line 1277

    Warning: PDO::exec() [pdo.exec]: SQLSTATE[3D000]: Invalid catalog name: 1046 No database selected in C:\xampp\htdocs\modx\core\xpdo\xpdo.class.php on line 1793

    As you can see, the name of the directory in which I installed Modx Revolution on the server is "modx".
    Are the problems arising because of a Drupal installation on the same server (Apache with Xampp)?

    Thank you for your help.

    Sam.

      Hi. We’ll need this before we can help you:

We can’t help you without that information.
