CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

-FIXED-Went back in couple hours later and it, Civicrm seems to be working.

With a New Auto installation of CiviCRM 2.0.4 on drupal 5.7 (that was a New manual install of drupal) I did have previous install attempt(S), but then completely wiped the drupal dir. off via ftp and started over several times. Everything checks out using the CiviCRM Installer Version 2.0.4 Drupal PHP5 and during install this time ...
I get an error:
CiviCRM is Already Installed
CiviCRM has already been installed in this Drupal site.
    * To start over, you must delete or rename the existing CiviCRM settings file - civicrm.settings.php - from [your Drupal root directory]/sites/default.
    * To upgrade an existing installation, refer to the online Installation Guide.

Then I do as suggested, delete/rename the
settings.php and do it again
and then I get:

Installing CiviCRM...
I am now running through the installation steps (this should take a few minutes)
If you receive a fatal error, refresh this page to continue the installation
# Building database schema and setup files...
Cannot execute CREATE TABLE `civicrm_value_1_constituent_information` ( id int(10) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, domain_id int(10) NOT NULL, entity_id int(10) NOT NULL, most_important_issue varchar(255) default NULL, marital_status varchar(255) default NULL, PRIMARY KEY (id), UNIQUE KEY unique_domain_id_entity_id (domain_id,entity_id), KEY index_marital_status (marital_status), KEY index_most_important_issue (most_important_issue)) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci ;: DB Error: already exists

I then do as it suggests and REFRESH that page and it loops back to same info/error page. I have no Idea what all this means. Anybody?
Thanks

Thanks for your quick response.

What version of CiviCRM are you running? I ask that because versions of civiCRM prior to 2.1 are not compatabile with Drupal 6.x.

CiviCRM 2.0.4(latest) with Drupal 5.7
I'm sorry, I didn't put the CiviCRM name infront of 6.2, and made a typo on the 6.2, should have been Civi 2.0.4 and Drupal 5.7, me bad.

With a New Auto installation of 6.2 on drupal 5.7
