Installation: database errors
no "drop if exist" mysql tables on install
I'm in a bit of a conundrum here, my install hangs at second step, because there was a database listing already present. Now I'm in an install loop, where every time I try to run the install over, I have to search through the database to remove all vestiges of the previous attempts, otherwise it hangs at step two.
I cannot uninstall the product to clear out all database mentions of vault wiki, as it is not fully installed.
I do not know exactly where all of the vault wiki tables are. I'm surprised that you don't have a drop table option if exists on your install package.
Are there any mysql commands that I can use to purge the database of ALL of the vault wiki tables, so that I can do a clean, uninterrupted install??? I did not have vault wiki installed before, not sure why it hung up on step two, but it did. and now I can't find all the mentions of vault wiki in the database, other than:
Altering usergroup table
# Altering forum table
# Altering forumpermission table
# Altering poll table
# Altering post table
# Altering bbcode table
Altering session table
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm really looking forward to getting this installed on my forums.
