If you can start it, will the engine stay running if you keep the throttle pedal pressed?
If it does the battery may be bad, and the battery should be load tested to check it's condition.
The slow up-ramp of voltage when charging a battery can make the PCM (computer) unhappy. It doesn't come out of reset cleanly when the voltage is hovering right at the reset threshold.
Disconnect the battery, wait a few minutes, and reconnect it. That will power up the PCM cleanly.
