 * hi everyone,
    Im testing wordpress for the first time, and I have a bug that 
   wp tell me to report here, so I do in the step “repearing database” (I have the
   french version but I guess it mean that, the forum seems to be in english so 
   I try to ask in eng) I have :
 * “wp_usermeta: Table ‘portailse.wp_usermeta’ doesn’t exist”
 * I didnt find it in forum (searching “wp_usermeta: Table doesn’t exist”)
    I could
   create a table named portailse.wp_usermeta if that is the pb, but I need to know
   the fields names and type
 * thank for your help 🙂

 * Thank for your time and for your fast answer MichaelH
    However, I didnt understand
   the discussion you gave to me (maybe because my eng isn’t very good) : In that
   discussion, you and other people talk about to put a content in “the .htaccess”,
   but I dont understand what it is. I looked for it in the database, and in the
   WorldPress file (including hidden files research) but I didn’t find anything 
   I also tryed to create a file named “.htaccess” on the server (and in wp-admin,
   and in wp-includes,…) with only the content :
 * php 1
    # BEGIN WordPress ErrorDocument 404 /index.php # END WordPress
 * but it still doesn’t change anything
    I guess I didn’t understand what you said
   in this discussion could you please, explain me what the “.htaccess” is ? where
   to find it, if it alredy exist ? or where to put it, if I have to create it ?
   thanks again 😉

 * At free.fr sometimes the solution has been to drop the WordPress tables in your
   MySQL database and do the install again.

 * Yes ! it works !
    I went on “Accéder et gérer votre base de données MySQL” (phpMyAdmin),
   I selected all tables and cliked on “Supprimer” (drop), then I restarted the 
   operation after create a text document on the server root directory named “.htaccess”
   with only 1 line : “php 1” thank you so much 🙂
