When trying to install the component I get this error message:

Table 'databasename.#__discuss_configs' doesn't exist (I've replaced the name of our database before posting to the forum)

What's the reason for that?
Ah, okay it seems like your development site's database prefix is almost identical to your live site and this was why EasyDiscuss thought it was on the same site.

Development DB prefix: bu_regionol_
Live site DB Prefix: regionol_

I have applied a temporary fix on our installer and I was able to install it for your site now. I will also apply the fix locally to prevent other users from hitting the same issue.

Hey Magnus,

Hm, that shouldn't happen at all unless the installation wasn't able to execute the initial sql queries. Is it possible for you to provide us with the back end and FTP access to your site to check on this issue? You may store your site access at http://stackideas.com/dashboard/site so you don't have to provide these information all the time

I have installed the component on the same server but a different directory earlier, on a temporary website. The problem occours when trying to install it on the real site.

I've created a login for you and that information has been stored here.
