I'm getting the following while running the install script:

FATAL ERROR: your MySQL account does not have permissions to run LOCK queries on existing MySQL tables
Enable this functionality and restart the script.

I used phpMyAdmin to create the database and user account, and granted all priviledges to the user. I don't see anything in the phpMyAdmin menus that deals with this.

Suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

Cliff

In MySQL there is a LOCK permission you can grant or revoke from the user. You need to make sure that this setting is enabled for the user/database you are using with the forum.

Thank you.

I ran the MySQL update permissions script and that enabled this additional permissions choice in phpMyAdmin.

That did the trick and the forums are up and running.

Much appreciated!

I am an experienced developer, but a newbie to FUDforum, MySQL, and phpMyAdmin. I'm trying a first-time install on a site hosted by GoDaddy using MySQL. I'm getting the same error. Could you provide details of how to grant the necessary privilege in MySQL using phpMyAdmin? What is the correct "GRANT" syntax once in phpMyAdmin, and/or where is the "script" you refer to? Thanks.

Specially since i am using a Godaddy host and don't have full control of the system.

What do i do if they don't allow me to change this? Can i change the code in FUDforum or is it a very intensive feature (used many times if not used would break the forum)?

The locking of table is a required function, used by the forum to ensure data consistency. You need to ask your server admin or database admin to grant your database account the LOCK privilege.

Godaddy does not do that. They claim security reasons

WARNING Do not use godaddy for hosting.
