This is very strange: the field name used for the categories term reference field is "classified_categories", not "field_field_classified_categories".

I just did a fresh install of the module on a clean D7 and could not reproduce this problem, not the one about the module going missing, which you mentioned on http://drupal.org/node/1979722#comment-7444086

Can you reproduce it on a clean Drupal install, with just core and Classified Ads ? I suppose this won't be the case, and this is the result of the interaction with another module. To find out what is happening, you will have to gradually install other modules, performing a clean install + a set of extra module + Classified Ads, checking each time until the problem happens again and noting which extra module caused the problem to appear.

Removing tags since they are not meant to be used that way.

Still no info a few weeks later. Do you still have the problem ?

This issue is not specific to the Classified Ads module. I am getting the same error today with a field taxonomy is trying to create. Issue can be closed here.

OK, so closing again, since it is not related to Classified Ads.
