Error in Step 2 on Installation [message #20479] Sat, 16 October 2004 04:13 Go to next message

I'm running a Windows 2003 Server, PHP 4.3.9, MySQL 4.1.5 and attempting to install Fudforum for the first time.

Step 2 is failing and I'm getting the error message:

Failed to create table "fud_thread_view" ("ALTER TABLE fud26_thread_view CHANGE pos pos INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT"), SQL Reason: Incorrect table definition; there can be only one auto column and it must be defined as a key

Any ideas on what's causing this?

Try executing the following query followed by the query that has failed and let me know what are the results.

CREATE UNIQUE INDEX fud26_idx_test ON fud26_thread_view (pos, page, forum_id);

Fixed in CVS.

FUDforum version 2.6.7 won't have this problem.

Is there a way for me to continue then? I downloaded 2.6.7 RC2 and it also has this problem.

Thanks,

No no, the new query should show the table's indexes, the one we've ran before showed the table fields.

The fix I've implemented was to add another index that according to your comments (queries we've tested) should've solved the problem.

Ok I found and fixed one bug in the intaller. The other problem is actually a bug specific to MySQL 4.1.5, I verified that it does not exist with MySQL 4.1.6.

Here is an updated installer I've confirmed to work with MySQL 4.1.6
