installed new wordpress and getting error message

  • OK, I installed the whole thing and now have a reasonably good looking template up, but there are a few problems. The stories are peppered with symbols where there should be apostrophes and quotes. I am also getting this message where I should be seeing graphics and tables:

    WordPress database error: [Table ‘fnu_stories.wp_terms’ doesn’t exist]
    SELECT t.*, tt.*, tr.object_id FROM wp_terms AS t INNER JOIN wp_term_taxonomy AS tt ON tt.term_id = t.term_id INNER JOIN wp_term_relationships AS tr ON tr.term_taxonomy_id = tt.term_taxonomy_id WHERE tt.taxonomy IN (‘category’, ‘post_tag’) AND tr.object_id IN (176) ORDER BY t.name ASC

    Can anyone tell me what I have to do? email me at

  • Decide what are you talking about:
    upgrade (as stated in tags) or a brand new WP installation?

    Here’s the fix I found in another thread in case anyone’s having the same issue. It’s looking awesome now.

    Try going to your wp-config.php file and deleting these two lines:

    define(‘DB_CHARSET’, ‘utf8’);
    define(‘DB_COLLATE’, ”);

    I had the same problem (it’s fixed now) and I believe it is because of upgrading from pre 2.0 versions to 2.2 through Fantastico.
