Hello,

I've been trying and trying to install a hack I got here, and it always fails.

Finally I downloaded HTL and it installed perfectly.

When trying to install the new hack I downloaded, I get this error:

Database error in vBulletin 3.0.3:

Invalid SQL: CREATE TABLE award (
awardid smallint(5) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
name varchar(50) NOT NULL default '',
description varchar(250) NOT NULL default '',
icon_url varchar(250) NOT NULL default '',
PRIMARY KEY (awardid)
) TYPE=MyISAM;
mysql error: Table 'award' already exists

mysql error number: 1050

What do I do here. Nobody can install this hack, and I'm a complete n00b with these things. :(

"mysql error: Table 'award' already exists"

That error is basically telling you that it wants to create a table called award but one already exists.

Log into phpmyadmin, go into your database and drop the award table. Back up yoru database first since your new to all this in case you screw something up. :)

So, I need to install phpmyadmin?

Alright, I'll try that and we'll see I guess.

Do you know anyone that does installs for people?

The Installation of phpmyadmin consists mainly of uploading the files to your server and editing the config file.

There are a few people that will install mods for you for a fee.
I suggest you post a service request in the Service Requests forum, I'm sure you'll get a few answers :)

Hopefully, but I don't know if anyone will.
