   While installing I got the following errors:
   wp_posts: Table 'wordpress.wp_posts' doesn't exist
   wp_comments: Table 'wordpress.wp_comments' doesn't exist
   wp_links: Table 'wordpress.wp_links' doesn't exist
   wp_options: Table 'wordpress.wp_options' doesn't exist
   wp_postmeta: Table 'wordpress.wp_postmeta' doesn't exist
   wp_term_relationships: Table 'wordpress.wp_term_relationships' doesn't exist
   wp_commentmeta: Table 'wordpress.wp_commentmeta' doesn't exist
   What should I do?
   Should I create them manually ans so yes which structure should they have?

   If it's a brand new site/blog with no content you could lose, I would do the whole install again.
   - make sure you have all the wordpress files uploaded (ideally the latest version)
   - make sure that wp-config.php is set correctly - especially database name and prefixes
   - make sure that the database exists and you have rights to edit it
   - if there are any tables from your previous unsuccessful installations, delete them - make the database empty to start with
   - then instal as usual
   I think it's a much greater probability of success than trying to create the table structures manually.

   Hi!

   Delete the database and re-install WordPress.

   Regards.
