Hi,
following posts about installing nop commerce 3.6 to an existing database:
https://www.nopcommerce.com/boards/t/12962/installing-nopcommerce-on-test-server-with-an-existing-database.aspx
and
https://www.nopcommerce.com/boards/t/12174/connecting-the-new-instance-of-nopcommerce20-to-existing-database.aspx
where the advice was to do this :
nstall nopCommerce to any new empty database. After it's done you'll have \Add_Data\Settings.txt file. Just open it and update your connection string so it points to your old database. Restart the application. After it's done your old database will be used

So I created a new database on my hosters backpanel (smarterASP). I tried to install my instance using the new empty database and I get this error:
Setup failed: Introducing FOREIGN KEY constraint 'WebShop_Product_WebshopOwner' on table 'Td_WebShop_Product_Mapping' may cause cycles or multiple cascade paths. Specify ON DELETE NO ACTION or ON UPDATE NO ACTION, or modify other FOREIGN KEY constraints. Could not create constraint or index. See previous errors.
there is no way it works. When I use my actual database with data, I got the error of an existing database:
Setup failed: An error occurred while updating the entries. See the inner exception for details.
what should I do? I would really need to get it working
many thanks in advance,
