Table Prefix Error after installation - Mark - Jun 10th, 2011
I have downloaded and installed the current Alpha release, however I receive the following error when I try and access my completed FormTools installation (after deleting the 'install' folder):
Quote:Uh-oh.
Form Tools couldn't find all the database tables. Please check your /global/config.php file to confirm the $g_table_prefix setting. The following tables are missing:

Huh... curious. I'll do a fresh installation and get back to you shortly.

Hi HTR,
What a pain. No, unfortunately it works fine for me. I did fresh installations using both the default prefix (ft_), a custom one and none whatsoever. All work fine. Did you download the alpha from http://alpha.formtools.org, or generate it through the custom build script? (http://www.formtools.org/build/).
One other thing: do you remember if you used your own table prefix, or left it as the default?
Would it be possible for you to email me the zipfile (if you still have it around)? I'd like to test it out myself. My email is ben.keen@gmail.com
btw, just so you know I introduced a pretty major bug into the Alpha in the last build: the accounts table isn't being created properly so you can't log in. I'll have this fixed in today's build.

Hi Ben,
Thanks for the reply. I do still have this failed installation available on a web server, but unfortunately I don't have the original ZIP download to hand. I downloaded the Alpha from 'alpha.formtools.org' rather than the Custom Builder.
I have downloaded yesterday's Alpha build and cannot progress past the same error.
I have sent you a PM with login details to my server so you can investigate the failed installation.
Many thanks,
Mark H

Just to sum up this thread, this was due to there being a hyphen in the database name & PHP getting confused.
This is fixed in today's Alpha build.
