Looks like you got the $bb_table_prefix wrong when you installed, it should have been different to the wordpress prefix.

Change $bb_table_prefix from “wp_” to “bb_” in bb-config.php then rename you bbPress tables thusly:

wp_forums -> bb_forums

wp_tagged -> bb_tagged

wp_tags -> bb_tags

wp_topicmeta -> bb_topicmeta

wp_topics -> bb_topics

.

Do not rename wp_posts, wp_users or wp_usermeta!

This will still leave you without a bb_posts table. So if you have a way to browse your database (e.g. phpMyAdmin) then go into the bb_topicmeta table and look for the row with a meta_key of bb_db_version. Change the meta_value of that row from 1234 to 1233. Login to your bbPress (hopefully it works) then go to the admin section. You will be asked to upgrade, do so and check the log. You should see a log entry where your bb_posts table is created.

That should do it.
