https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=434
worked on my test forum it completely uninstalled the xml, but not on my actual forum
Code:
MySQL Error : Can't DROP 'field51'; check that column/key exists
Error Number : 1091
i just set up the test forum on my local host last nite so that this does not happened again.
