Sombody could help us... I saw many topics here talking about DB Error: Unknow error
or DB Error: no such table.

But non response...

Do you have access to the mysql console? I haven't seen that error before, but maybe if you can log in (as the mysql account assigned to statusnet) and 'show tables' someone might have an idea.

Also, do you have access to the mysql logs?

I tried it, but got this errors:

Page notice

* Checking database...

* Database error: DB Error: unknown option ssl

That's very mysterious to me. Can anybody help? Thanks

@lnxwalt, can access through CLI but there's no table created

If I remember correctly I just generated the tables manually before installation and tried the install again, this worked fine for me.

@NewbieGer: Do not worry about the first three right now, the serious one is the DB Error line.

I'm having this issue (DB Error: no such table) when trying to add contacts to a new installation (cloned from gitorious and up2date). Should the tables not have been generated with install.php?
I have another installation (older, but also cloned from gitorious and up2date), and the list of tables in the two databases is definitely different.
Is there a script to create the tables, or, at the very least, a list of tables somewhere?
