I recently moved a Revo install from one server to another; which I've done countless times now. However, this time I'm not able to run setup as I would normally do.
I created the new DB on the new server and updated all the configs per the RTFM:
/core/config.inc.php
/config.core.php (0644)
/connectors/config.core.php (0644)
/manager/config.core.php (0644)
I deleted and created a new cache folder (777)
When I get to Connection Information, I enter the new db information but I continue to have:
"Connecting to database server:
Could not connect to the existing database for upgrade. Check the connection properties and try again."
What am I missing?

Double-check the database server; I've been bitten by this a few times when it turned out that the database was on a separate server, not "localhost".

I moved it from cpanel to cpanel, and in phpmyadmin it says localhost. Should I look elsewhere for the database server host?

No, just a suggestion. With CPanel, however, database names and usernames often have a prefix prepended to what you indicated. Double-check that the database name isn't something like mydomain_databasename rather than just databasename.
