Well first some background, this hasn't happened before but last night I had some trouble installing a shoutbox mod so I undid all the steps I had performed I have also installed a search engine friendly mod successfuly which makes php links html links even though I know ipb supposedly has such a feature built in but this supposedly helps with getting the forum indexed in a search engine even more and this mod never caused this problem so I suspect something happened when I tried installing the shoutbox mod and I backtraced my steps undoing each one as I went. The error I get is:

There appears to be an error with the database.

We apologise for any inconvenience

and only happens with two staff only forums which as such I'm reluctant to link to and one public forum which can be found here: http://www.johnscompany.net/gamerzdr...rself-f36.html - any ideas on where this error is and if so how I can fix it? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

P.S. The shoutbox mod I attempted to install is: http://mods.invisionize.com/db/index.php/f/3305
