Forum database error

    Hi,

    I run a IPB 2.1.7 forum, and I really needed a chat system so i installed StrChat
    http://mods.invisionize.com/db/index.php/f/6551
    I followed every step. I installed it, and when i try to use the chat it gives me this error:

    And people are not able to see their control panel.
    so i tried to uninstall it and when i do that i get a database error,


    Has anyone got any ideas? I don't know a lot about this stuff.

    I cant remember much from ipb 2.1.7 because we use the latest since we are a design firm however if there is a mysql functions php page then look in that for something relating to the chat and remove it. Invision hacks are never good, they ask you to find a line and its either not there or it wont work which is annoying at time, I would hardly ever say this but if your wanting to use hacks use vBulletin. I personally have had no issues with vbulletin hacks and used it for a good 6 years, as for ipb I have used ipb and ikonboard when matt wrote that for around 8 years and on both boards hacks where always a problem.

    Have you try to look at IPB forums and seek for paid help instead?

    if you want an easy way upgrade the board to 2.2.1 however a hard way would be to find the file for the mysql functions and remove any thing which mentions the hack backup your database before upgrading if you chose the easy way, I cant help anymore than that since I no longer use 2.1.7 :(.
