Tags/database problem (5 posts)

    I upgraded from WPMU 1.2.something to 2.6.5. I did it in sequential jumps 1.2.3->1.2.5->etc. up to 2.6.5.

    Categories didn't transport across, neither did tags. When I try to add new tags or categories, I'm told that 'Could not insert term int othe database'. Could it be that hte database didn't upgrade properly? Have I got a permissions error somewhere, or has the database changed to accomodate tags & categories in new fields/tables?

    Could do with some help here, if you have time... ;-)

    Did you check if some tables in your DB got locked?

    aha - that might explain it. Can you give me a pointer to a howto for unlocking them?

    (blush) of course. thanks VentureMaker.

    Well, no joy on that one. Nothing seems to be locked.
    In what table would tags be stored? Can't find one called tags...
