Topic: “Database failed to install”
Hi, so I’ve run into a bit of a problem on the installation process. I get through all the steps but then when I press complete the installation if gives me the following error:
The database failed to install. You may need to replace bbPress with a fresh copy and start again.
I deleted and then re-uploaded bbPress 3 times and each time I get this result. Any ideas on what I might be doing wrong? I’m trying to install it on a subdomain, forums.wearelabor.com, and trying to integrate it with WPMU/BuddyPress. Any and all help very much appreciated.
Hi Sam! thanks for your answer;
A my-languages directory would probably be the way to go.
Well, then bb-config.php needs to have last lines changed
; // Change this to localize bbPress. A corresponding MO file for the
// chosen language must be installed to bb-includes/languages.
// For example, install de.mo to bb-includes/languages and set BB_LANG to 'de'
// to enable German language support.
define('BB_LANG', '');I tried a my-languages and a bb-languages folder but no way.
Can you link to the language files you were trying to use?
I had an old .mo file stored in my hard drive. I think it was for bbpress 0.7 or a previous version, not sure.
Well, that’s different…
But I just realised you are using bbPress 0.9 – the bb_mail() function has been replaced in 1.0-alpha with one more like wp_mail() in WordPress.
It was replaced in part because people had problems sending from Windows environments. You have probably just pinpointed the cause of that. Just a few months too late unfortunately!
For now I would just hack the core of 0.9 if I were you – it is unlikely to see any more updates. The replacement function in 1.0 should take care of this, although I would appreciate it if you could test 1.0-alpha for the same problem if you have some time.
They’re no where near the point where they want to pimp a finalized product. Personally, I’ve seen far too many projects like this fail because they promoted themselves before they were ready. Right now, even though there is a stable version, the whole site is pretty much a big public test. There’s too much going on to be able to guess a date, and based on the past, if you held a gun to my head, I’d make things up. Which is what developers do when our bosses want to know how long it will take to build the next toy for our companies. We don’t know, sometimes. Creativity (and yes, coding is just that) is hard to measure.
So. It’ll be done when it’s done. Not by years end. Hopefully us posters can help hammer out the big issues to get them to a live 1.0 version sooner, but it’ll take time

The installation would say that it was successful but it would not create a topic as that error in the last stage would indicate.
The first forum is created and it says there is 1 post but upon clicking said forum it presents you with a “New Topic in this Forum” form. When you post a new topic, it gives you an error: “This topic has been closed.”
