My DB solution. - 2007/02/23 23:43
Hi, I couldn't get the component to install as it kept halting on this part of the install.

alter table `jos_gmaps_markers` add constraint
FOREIGN KEY (`id`)
REFERENCES `jos_gmaps_points` (item_id)

So after some investigation I found that the database tables were being created as InnoDB in mysql and that if I altered them to MyISAM then the part of the DB script that was causing problem could be execuited.

I ain't no DB expert but I counted 75 tables in my joomla DB only 3 are InnoDB and all the rest are MyISAM.

Hope this help someone else.

Keith,
Thanks for the info. Good post. Someone else had a similar problem. I am not a MySQL expert ... and Oracle guy.

I am new to joomla and wonder if someone can give a step by step on how to make these changes.

Please.

Thank you

here is an FAQ, I believe, that will fix the problem.

http://firestorm-technologies.com/faqs/gmaps/db-error-is-occuring-when-performing-the-install.html

If you got to the "alter table" command to add the foreign key then the tables have already been created and all you have to do is execute the ALTER TABLE command to change the engine to MYISAM using a MySQL tool like phyMyAdmin.
