(solved)[help] MySQL
« on: February 07, 2013, 05:44:37 am »
I get this error after setting up MySQL during install.

"There are tables with the same name in the database. Change the table prefix or the database and try again."

I only have one DB for Osclass and none of my other DBs have the same names. I use MySQL 5.1

Edit: I deleted the MySQL database and created new.

I've seen this before.

Sometimes on a failed install some tables are created in Mysql so when you try and install again you will get this error.

So either you can login to your database and delete the tables "oc_" or you can change the prefix when installing.

Change "oc_" to "devlos_" or what ever you want.

"Edit: I deleted the MySQL database and created new." (That will work too) :D

I think this happened because I lost connection to the net during install then on second attempt I got the error. Thanks
