We’ve followed the upgrade instructions, including the “copy the database.php file to user/config/ but when trying to get to the upgrade wizard it gives us:

Exception Caught

You must define the following database parameters: database

DBConfig.php:157

ee_wizard shows everything is great… we can’t seem to figure out what the problem is.

Happened to me just now as well updating to 3.4.5

I copied the DB settings from the old database.php to /site/wwwroot/system/ee/EllisLab/ExpressionEngine/Service/Database/DBConfig.php

Then I had to rename the installer_3.4.5 folder back to just be installer and run the update again.
