Error when first installing and integrating bbPress with WP - 'table prefix'?

  1. I have made my second attempt at installing bbPRess in the web/content/forum directory - and integrating the databases.

    Last time I believe I left the User Table Prefix as 'bb_'.
    The install 'worked' but I could not add new topic, reply, etc. with any user.

    This time I entered it as 'wp_' and I have installation errors -

    My error report:

    SQL ERROR!
    >>> Database: xxxxxx_norcalmilsim (xxxCORRECT-I CHECKEDxxx)
    >>>>>> ALTER TABLE wp_posts ADD COLUMN post_id bigint(20) NOT NULL auto_increment;
    >>>>>> Incorrect table definition; there can be only one auto column and it must be defined as a key
    SQL ERROR!

    ****

    I can enter new topics (last time I could not - attempting so would give me a page 'topic closed') BUT I cannot read the topic.

    Also, a 'user' named 'anonymous' made a post 40 years ago...

    What's going on??
