Got the following error when trying to install. I tried with both the latest DEV and BETA branches.

DatabaseSchemaObjectExistsException: Table jabber already exists. in DatabaseSchema->createTable() (line 657 of /public_html/d7/includes/database/schema.inc).

I find that Drupal doesn't always update tables well when a module is uninstalled. Try uninstalling the module and the installing it again. If that doesn't work. Uninstall jabber. Then delete the jabber table manually. Then re-enable the jabber module again.

Hello

I have the same error.

Try uninstalling the module and the installing it again. If that doesn't work. Uninstall jabber. Then delete the jabber table manually. Then re-enable the jabber module again.

I do that but always the same error. There is also no "/admin/settings/jabber" to configure this modul

Best regards
Frank

Getting same error on first install of Jabber. Is it possible another module has created a table called "jabber"?

When drupal gives you this error, try uninstalling the module (don't just disable it). It will remove the jabber table. Then reinstalling you'll be able to succeed in creating the jabber table.

can not be removed because:

delete

but when I installed the module, then I got this:

install

if you have to you can always just uninstall the module, then delete the jabber table from mysql. But uninstalling (not disabling) the module should delete the tables. After the table is deleted you can try reinstalling jabber.

That's what it is supposed to do. But it is not doing that. So maybe a possible patch will fix the issue?

I'm getting this on a fresh database.

It looks like hook_install and hook_uninstall can be removed entirely. The functionality there is already performed by Drupal core.

[remote dup] (really Drupal? You can't prevent double submit of a form?)
