Hi,

I get the following database error when trying to create a Group

`WordPress database error: [Table ‘mydatabase_name.wp_bp_groups’ doesn’t exist]
INSERT INTO wp_bp_groups ( creator_id, name, slug, description, status, enable_forum, date_created ) VALUES ( 2, ‘Talk >>> Events’, ‘events’, ‘Your comments are welcome!’, ‘public’, 0, ‘2012-07-19 21:38:38’ )

WordPress database error: [Table ‘mydatabase_name.wp_bp_groups_groupmeta’ doesn’t exist]
SELECT g.*, gm1.meta_value AS total_member_count, gm2.meta_value AS last_activity FROM wp_bp_groups_groupmeta gm1, wp_bp_groups_groupmeta gm2, wp_bp_groups g WHERE g.id = gm1.group_id AND g.id = gm2.group_id AND gm2.meta_key = ‘last_activity’ AND gm1.meta_key = ‘total_member_count’ AND g.status != ‘hidden’ ORDER BY last_activity DESC LIMIT 0, 10000

What’s happening?

Thanks,

Your database hasn’t been installed correctly — the groups table isn’t there.

Did your BuddyPress install complete correctly? Did you enable the Groups component? Any error messages in your server logs when you installed BP?

Have you tried reinstalling BuddyPress?

Finally, what versions of WP / BP?
