Re: bbpress posting errors? missing database tables!
Really glad it’s sorted, the solution was an odd one though if anything the newer MySQL versions should be better but nasty conflicts do arise between various versions of all these essential core apps on a server – I’m having to deal with a few issues with MySQL on production servers that are turning my hair white at present. I suspect the root cause of your issue is still to be understood exactly and fully.
This thread is a helpful one for others though and we should ensure it’s linked to from the others which I’ll do if you haven’t already.
Edit// great, see you’ve done that.
Of course in all this we should stop to consider that down grading ones MySQL version on a dev server is one thing but many will be unable to do that on a production or hosted server easily and even if they can they should proceed with absolute caution in doing this on a *nix server as it needs to be done rather carefully.
