[Koha] Installer error on database initialization

[Tom Hanstra]

I've run into a problem with a database setting somewhere.

I ran the installer a few days ago and it worked properly to install the 
database tables into the remote server database which I specified.

Today, I ran the installer again with what I thought were the same 
parameters, but with a different database name because I wanted a clean 
install.  But this time, instead of properly using the remote server, I 
get an error that the installer cannot DROP a table and it is obvious 
from the error message that it is not using the remote server.

What might I have missed?  The koha-conf.xml file shows the remote 
database server configured, so why might the installer not be properly 
using that?

Any ideas where to look?

Thanks,
Tom
