I tried to install 4.6.0 on a test server and I get a strange or new error "Unsupported database type"

I first did a upgrade and after getting this message I did a clean install and I still getting the same message. Any Ideas? Regards Ron

Sounds like you have a typographical error in your settings.php file, or you neglected to specify your database in the $db_url line in settings.php.

Note that with 4.6, the site-specific configuration information, like the database $db_url line, moved from ./includes/conf.php to ./sites/default/settings.php or ./sites/your-site-name/settings.php.

./includes/conf.php is no longer used. Look at the example settings.php file in ./sites/default to learn how to create a file specific to your site.
