Looks like your Access database has become corrupted.

You need to download the Access database, open it in MS Access, and choose, 'compact and repair database' from the tools menu, the reupload to the server.

However, with the amount of posts and users you have you should not be using Access as Access is a flat desktop file and not up to the job of handling forums over 2,000 posts and 1 active user. This warning is on the download page.

You need to be using the mySQL or SQL Server versions, as these are real database systems and can handle many 1000's of active users.

Borg,

   thanks for your reply. I am upgrading from 7.8 to 8.x so I can then move from access to sql. 

   Would the compact and repair function in wwf accomplish the same thing?

  I downloaded the database and compact/repaired it in access 2003 and reuploaded it. I am getting the same error.

Have you upgraded your 7.x database to an 8.x database?

If not this is why you get the error.

Version 8 uses a new database schema that is not compatible with version 7.x

You need to use the database upgrade tool to upgrade your database to a version 8 database, but watch out as you can not use a version 8 database on an older version 7.x forum or you will mess up the data stored in the database.

I thought I used the upgrade tool, which converts everything. The rest of the forum seems to work.

   Is there a way to see if my database has been converted?

I just checked, I used the upgrade tool from the forum download page.

  I also noticed that I can view posts by clicking on the rss link.
