Form Tools couldn't find all the database tables - icue - Mar 29th, 2012
Hi,
I have installed Form Tool(?) but I get the following error: Form Tools couldn't find all the database tables. Please check your /global/config.php file to confirm the $g_table_prefix setting. I checked in PHPmyAdmin and Form Tools created the database and all the tables that it can't find.
During the install Form Tools failed to detect mysql version and failed but I ignored and carried on with the install so I assume that is the cause of the problem. Is there a fix for this.

I have the exact problem trying to install FT 2.2.5 ( latest version )
Server is IIS 6. php is 5.3.0. Install goes through with out a problem. All tables are named correctly and I see them in the DB with phpmyadmin, however when trying to get to the folder. all I get is the:
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:
Everything in the config.php file looks correct?!
any help PLEASE!??

Hi there,
Do the Form Tools table match the prefix you have set? If you can log into the admin, I would run a system check and fix the missing tables there. If not you will need to re-install Form Tools.
Cheers,
Joe

I have re-installed FormTool many times. all the tables are there and the table names match, and the table prefix matches.. ft_ , as I said already.. I can see them all, and the data with phpmyadmin.. I am NOT able to go anywhere with formtools url. because of the so-called error. of tables not existing..
I do NOT understand and this is very frustrating!
in config.php:
$g_table_prefix = "ft_";
table names ( as is reported by phpmyadmin ):

RE: Form Tools couldn't find all the database tables - leeburstroghm - Jun 11th, 2013
Ok the issue for ME was that my db name is all numbers. and sql has issues with this. so you have to encapsulate the tablename var in ` `
on line 939 of code/general.php ad the ` ` as in the following
$result = mysql_query("SHOW TABLES FROM `$g_db_name`");
NOT apostrophe, I am talking the ` below the tilda ~ its a sql thing.. I did NOT try putting it in the config.php as the actuall global var.. that should work.. but to fix all future issues. FormTool should ads the fix to keep this from happening.. The install script must have been written by someone else, with a little more fore site. Kudos!
I also found another entry around line 529. Another Show Tables Query.

No doubt form tool is the best document assembly software but many users are facing issues during installation. I have also been going through that problem then I have discussed it with my friend who is a member of bestessaytips review firm he told me to join their services and read all the tips and tricks that are given by professionals on their website especially for the assistance of students.
