    Weird Error with step 4, really weird.

    Well I edit my config file, and upload it, and that all goes fine, it connects to my DB just fine, then I go to step 4, and I get this error

    [code]

    Creating table access

    Altering access table


    There seems to have been a slight problem with the database.

    We apologise for any inconvenience.
    [/code]

    So I go into the Source, cos that is were the error is and it says this:

    [code]
    <p>Creating table access</p>
    <!-- CREATE TABLE access (
    userid int(10) unsigned DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL,
    forumid smallint(5) unsigned DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL,
    accessmask smallint(5) unsigned DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL
    ) -->

    <p>Altering access table</p>
    <!-- ALTER TABLE access ADD UNIQUE (userid,forumid) -->

    <html><head><title> Database Error</title><style>P,BODY{FONT-FAMILY:tahoma,arial,sans-serif;FONT-SIZE:11px;}</style><body>

    <!-- Database error in vBulletin Installer :

    Invalid SQL: ALTER TABLE access ADD UNIQUE (userid,forumid)
    mysql error: Error on rename of './skidrowpunk/access.MYI' to './skidrowpunk/#sql2-1443-6659c.MYI' (Errcode: 2)

    mysql error number: 7

    Date: Sunday 13th of January 2002 10:21:04 AM
    Script: /forums/admin/install.php?step=4
    [/code]

    I KNOW that is were my error is but I have no idea WHY I am getting it, I really do want to buy the full version of VB but not while I get this error. :(

    So do you guys any ideas? Because any help would really be great, cos i really want to get this Forum (my server is on f2s.com to)

    Thanks!

    My understanding is that f2s.com is not a very good host for vB. I'm not a mySQL expert but it looks like there might be a problem with their mySQL configuration.

    If you're serious about purchasing vB, you'll need to find a real host to run it on.
