Step 3 Setting up the PhotoPost database erro

[JSDillon]

When completing step 3 Setting up the PhotoPost database, I encountered the following error...

Step 3: MySQL error reported: [INSERT INTO pp_categories (id,catname,description,catorder,thumbs,parent,children) VALUES (1,'Main','',2,'no',0,'2')]
Result: Duplicate entry '1' for key 1
Database: dbforum

I would welcome any suggestions about why I received this error and how I can fix it.

Hi..

Can i ask is this the second time you have run the install?
If so you will have this kind of error, if this is a new install you could empty the database and try the install again.

by all means this is a second install, and actually much further down the line than that, as I am reinstalling until I have successfully completed a good install.
