Hi there,

I have recently migrated my forums from one database to another. Everything is working perfectly, except when trying to add new topics. I have checked that the settings on the database tables are the same (i.e. what tables are identity and nulls etc.) but get this message (when trying to post with a poll):

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'

[Microsoft>[ODBC SQL Server Driver>[SQL Server>Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'Votes', table 'sportsfreak-forum.dbo.tblForumPollChoice'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.

/forum/post-message.asp, line 527


And this one with no poll:

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'

[Microsoft>[ODBC SQL Server Driver>[SQL Server>Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'Locked', table 'sportsfreak-forum.dbo.tblForumTopic'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.

/forum/post-message.asp, line 578

Please help!!

Try giving these tables default values as it looks like you may not have imported the default values into the new database.

The column 'Votes' in the 'PollChoice' table should have the default value of '0' and the same for the 'Locked' column in the 'Topics' table.
