If you are doing things exactly as you should to rename table prefixes and getting errors, it's probably just another phpMyAdmin bug. I find them ALL THE TIME. phpMyAdmin is sometimes your friend and sometimes a junky piece of crap. Anyway, for some reason when I select multiple tables (with the same prefix) and select (with selected) 'replace table prefix', it throws errors or does nothing whatsoever. But, when I select a couple at a time instead of 10+ at a time, it works. It's just another example of poor coding in the coding industry from all the outsourcing being done.
So just do it a few at a time or do it using SQL directly.
Almost forgot... there's another bug to this process. If you try to just select a few more to 'replace prefix', it will throw an error. You have to refresh the web page between every replace. Garbage.
