 * So, I was trying to get WordPress up and running on my server, get everything
   configured just right, run the install.php, and get this:
 * WordPress database error Table ‘wordpress.wp_options’ doesn’t exist for query
   INSERT INTO wp_options (option_name, option_value, autoload) VALUES (‘cron’, ‘
   a:2:{i:1225449101;a:1:{s:17:\”wp_update_plugins\”;a:1:{s:32:\”40cd750bba9870f18aada2478b24840a\”;
   a:3:{s:8:\”schedule\”;s:10:\”twicedaily\”;s:4:\”args\”;a:0:{}s:8:\”interval\”;
   i:43200;}}}s:7:\”version\”;i:2;}’, ‘yes’) made by add_option
    WordPress database
   error Table ‘wordpress.wp_options’ doesn’t exist for query INSERT INTO wp_options(
   option_name, option_value, autoload) VALUES (‘random_seed’, ‘542ebefaed92812d838fd0830a84b57b’,‘
   yes’) made by add_option WordPress database error Table ‘wordpress.wp_options’
   doesn’t exist for query INSERT INTO wp_options (option_name, option_value, autoload)
   VALUES (‘auth_salt’, ‘ZLJHJVGtf4Gj’, ‘yes’) made by add_option
 * Any thoughts?
