I tried to install taxonomy_block module 1.14 via FTP (using filezilla) and when I enabled it, I got this msg.

user warning: Table 'databasename.taxonomy_block' doesn't exist query: SELECT * FROM taxonomy_block in /home/www/public_html/drupal/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 120.

Any ideas on this one. :)

It's complaining about the missing database table. Is there a .mysql file in the taxonomy_block directory? Then import it into PHPMyAdmin and run it to create the table.

If you are on 4.7 it should have taken care of itself, but apparently it didn't.

If modules misbehave after installation, it's worth reading the README.txt and install.txt files for instructions.

I tried using phpMyAdmin and this is what I got:

MySQL said: Documentation

If you got that error message, you fed it the wrong file. You can not feed phpmyadmin a .module file. Look for a .mysql file.

Thank you yelvington. I was able to make it run.

Taxonomy block's readme file is

This is a simple module to create blocks based on taxonomy. It displays listings of recently posted nodes based on taxonomy definitions. You can create as many blocks as you like.
