corrupt language table
hello
I had posted a problem with a corrupt language table a few weeks back. That was my first textpattern install. Now im on my second install and the same thing has happened again.
I was able to fix the problem by emptying the txp_lang table. Will that screw anything else up?
Obviously this is not a coincidence, what could i be doing that corrupts this table?
Heres the post from the first incident.

Re: corrupt language table
Oh one more bit of information that may be useful here.
In php my admin i get this warning:
UNIQUE and INDEX keys should not both be set for column `lang`
its a bad hen that wont scratch itself.

Re: corrupt language table
The phpMyAdmin warning is not related.
It won’t screw anything up. Remember to re-install the language(s) you need. You should always try and repair the lang table first, and empty it only if that fails.
(And of course, you can’t do that – empty the table & start over – with any of the other tables. In that situation you would have to restore from a backup when repair fails.)

Re: corrupt language table
I added a new FAQ for the phpMyAdmin error message.
Regarding the table corruption: did you try repairing the table?
