I've upgraded my forum from 3.5 to 3.6 and imported my old database. There was something wrong with my database and I couldn't upgrade directly. So I had to install a second forum, import the database there and upgrade to vb3.6. I think I've also imported the downloadsII tables. I guess that's all the info I can give you... let me know if you need more! Thanks in advance for helping me...

Normally if it's a forum without DownloadsII, the best way to do this is installing a clean DownloadsII installation. This will add the dl2 tables, settings, usergroups, and much other junk

Then you use phpMyAdmin (that's the most easiest way) and you remove (drop) all the dl2 tables of the clean installation. And finally you import your backup dl2 tables of the original installation. So: all the settings, usergroups, ... things are installed correctly in the database by the new install and all the data imported by the old dl2 tables.
You can't install DownloadsII properly using the product file if the dl2 tables are already present.
