      Description

      In the installation page at:
      sites/all/modules/civicrm/install/index.php
      there is a message generated by line 652 when a database does not exist. There are two possible databases that might not exist, the one for Drupal (if it does not it is most likely do to an incorrect entry in the installation page and not because it does not actually exist) and the one for Civicrm. It would have saved me some time if this message indicated which nonexistent database triggered this message. I had a hard time figuring out why this message displayed because I thought it was triggered by a civicrm database that was there but it could not find. Actually the problem was a misspelled Drupal database name.
