Adverbs like however must have a ; infront if used to connect sentences.
for example:

I like pizza; however, I hate cheese.

On the other hand, regular conjunctions like for, or, nor, yet, and, but, so
require just a comma infront when connecting two independent clauses.
for example:

I like pizza, but I hate cheese.

The error is minute but very important. I've fallen for it in the past but not anymore.

Hope that helps.
