Hi @wamarobert

This problem you are facing has a similar thread:

Problems installing / Database Error

Hi, I’m a designer with little and limited knowledge on coding (html and css). I tried to install a ojs on my website (as a test before I do the installation at a friend’s site) and when doing that I faced this problem :"“A database error has occurred: No such file or directory”. I also tried to do a local install using Mamp, and everytime I do it says: “The localhost page isn’t working” Somehow I think they are the same problem. I am trying to install the version ojs-2.4.8-1 Does anyone kno…

Take a look on it, but in summary, you need create a database before start install procedure.
