    same here... it's an innodb thing, nothing to do really but reduce the size of the column.

      So at first I thought it could be the user titles being too long. I went through and shortened them all but that didn't work. Any suggestions?

          Is reducing the column size the solution that worked for you? If so, how is that done?

            the code is fine, its the size of the columns, which are WAY too big. in the table messagefolder, change title and titlephrase to varchar(60) and rerun the installer. that should do it. There's no WAY those columns need to be that big!

            do you have PHPmyADMIN access? that's the best way? if not, i can walk you through doing it on the shell if you have SSH access. you COULD have done it in your admnicp, but i'm guessing your install is still broken

                how did you upload the files to the server? did you unzip it on the server, or upload them individually?

                      I am having no luck with this upgrade to 27. I have tried many of the suggestions found on various threads with similar issues and still no luck.

                          I have the same error! Difference is 1000 instead of 767 bytes.
