    Hello Alexandre,

    Thank you for creating this wonderful plugin ! ??
    It works like a charm on couple of the sites I have installed earlier with no issues.
    Though for some reason with my latest install I am unable to activate it !

    Error message recieved:

    Failed to create the necessary database table(s).

    Could you please guide me as to how I could fix this ?

    Thanks in advance ??

    Hello @arnavsaha !
    It seems your database for this website doesn’t have wp_wprus_logs and wp_wprus_logs tables (assuming wp is the table prefix).
    Could you check that in the database to start with?
    The way these tables are created at plugin activation is using the WordPress standard method, so there is very little to do to help with such issue at the plugin’s level.

    Hi @frogerme
    I have got the same problem with 3 WP-Installations (on the same server). The tables you are asking for are not available. It is the only Plugin which cannot create the tables.

    Hi @melme ,

    Is it possible to provide more information, such as:
    Are there any other errors in the PHP logs?
    Does it happen with a fresh install of WordPress?
    Do you get any errors output in logs with define( 'WP_DEBUG', true ) in wp-config.php?

    No activity for more than a week – closing.

    I had the same error. It was a problem with the database’s mySQL version. It was too old, I updated it and worked fine
