clean, stock drupal 5.1 install, cck-5.x-1.5. Pollfield does not reflect votes -- it registers that a user has voted and provides a button for cancelling his vote, but does not show that any votes have taken place (shows 0 votes registered), and when the user clicks the "cancel my vote" button, it throws an error:

You are not allowed to cancel an invalid poll choice.

Any ideas?

Is there any solution for this?

It looks like changing the "table" parameter from cache to cache_content in pollfield_clear function around line 800 in pollfield.module fixes this.

function pollfield_clear($node) {
$cid = 'content:'. $node->nid;
cache_clear_all($cid, 'cache_content', TRUE);
}

Can someone confirm that?

and indeed there is not 'cache_content' table in my DB. there only following tables:

cache
cache_filter
cache_menu
cache_page

Does my DB have incorrect structure or problem is somewhere in the module?

Fixed in http://drupal.org/node/151020.

The cache_content table was added to CCK somewhere along the line and would only be missing in an installation that had an outdated CCK version. The pollfield module code by April of 2007 had an if/then to clear the table whether it was named 'cache' or 'cache_content', so that should have worked at the time that the issue was reported.
