Thread:Extension talk:Flow/Errors, just trying it out./reply (5)

Mark, Flow adds the "discussion" workflow at setup time. It should happen the first time you run maintenance/update.php after adding Flow, it adds the Flow database tables and runs 'FlowInsertDefaultDefinitions'. So run that as SeanFoe suggested.

One problem is if Flow install goes wrong, MediaWiki can think that this step completed (the step is recorded in the table 'updatelog'), so you get

...Update 'FlowInsertDefaultDefinitions' already logged as completed

If you have some kind of mysql inspection tool (e.g. mysql -u root mywikidb ), should show two definitions,for "topic" and "discussion". If it complains the table doesn't exist, then you need to rerun update.php; if it doesn't find anything, you can follow EBernhardson's instructions below to delete this: then rerun update.php

In general, if you have developer problems, we're in the (poorly-named).
