I have an older Drupal 5 site that is suddenly telling me that I have 116 extra tables. The modules for those tables (many cck field tables ) are enabled. The drupal status report says the database schema is up to date but the schema module shows 116 extra tables.

I noticed the problem when I was no longer able to add new content that has cck fields. Non-cck content types still work fine. I've run update.php and optimized the database. There are no PHP or Apache errors when I try to add cck content and all modules are up to date.

Here's the error message when trying to add cck new content.

Safari can’t open the page “http://www.example.com/node/add/example” because the server unexpectedly dropped the connection. This sometimes occurs when the server is busy. Wait for a few minutes, and then try again.

Any Suggestions?

Drupal 5.20
PHP 5.2.11
MySQL 5.0.67

It sounds like your problem is with CCK, not with the schema module. Schema does nothing that would break CCK, it just helps you to diagnose it (in this case, it's telling you that the CCK schema definitions aren't available, which suggests CCK is not enabled).
