Yeah, no problem there... here's a copy of what I posted to PP. FYI... and on the off chance that anybody has some ideas. I'm waiting for PP to reply.
[:"blue"]I'm trying to install 4.8.1 using external user database for UBBT 6+. Going straight through the install steps, I get this error after filling out the info in step 3 for external user database:
---
MySQL error reported!
Script: install
Query: SELECT groupid, groupname, cpaccess, uploads, comments, diskspace, uploadsize, editpho, editposts, modaccess, useralbums, reqmod, canassign FROM tbnpp_usergroups
Result: Table 'tbn_photopost.tbnpp_usergroups' doesn't exist
Database handle: Resource id #2
---
tbn_photopost is the PhotoPost database. tbnpp_ is the prefix for the tables.
I checked and usergroups doesn't exist. But I do not know why it doesn't exist. And why it's looking for usergroups in the tbn_photopost db when it should be using the external UBBT db for the user db.
All URLs, paths and passwords are correct (checked many times).[/]
