I have no users on the second forums just me the webmaster and a few tests accounts they have been there forum 2 years unused.
I was playing around in the MYSQL files and that is why you see the error you do. I have no problem taking the new forums down and creating a new database and reinstalling the new forums if that will help.
The part of having trouble with is merging the two together and now a new problem of updating the old forums to the newest available software.
