# User's can't register. Database error?

 * I’ve been pulling my hair all day & can’t figure out why this isn’t working. 
   I’ve installed the SABRE plugin, and it’s been blocking all attempts at registration.
   I look at the database & the wp_sabre_table doesn’t exist. I see a few other 
   people get this error, and create the database table manually. Still no dice.
 * So I export one of the SQL queries & try it to enter it manually in mysql. That
   works fine.
 * >  INSERT INTO wp_sabre_table SET user_IP = ‘66.65.41.132’, first_mod = ‘2012-
   > 12-27 21:21:42’, last_mod = ‘2012-12-27 21:21:42’, letter = ‘R’
 * This is where things get weirder. I add this
 * >  $wpdb->show_errors = TRUE;
   >  $wpdb->suppress_errors = FALSE;
 * into the code about line 150 (before that sql query gets executed)
 * And I get this:
 * >  WordPress database error: [Table ‘xyz_abc.wp_sabre_table’ doesn’t exist]
 * No here is the interesting thing: My database name isn’t xyz_abc! It’s close 
   to the database name, but not what’s in my config.php (let’s say that’s def).
 * I’m totally stumped here. Not sure what to do next…
 * Any help would be appreciated.
 * WP 3.5

 * I took the liberty of updating a few things in the plugin including this error
   because I really wanted to use it and the developer seems to have disappeared.
   If he ever comes back, I’ll be happy to remove my link. Deactivate the current
   version of the plugin and delete it. Then upload this zip file to install the
   updated version… and you should be back online.

 * I’ve updated it a couple times for various things, so I just tacked another .
   2 onto the end of the version number.
 * I’ve fixed the MySQL table creation error by removing the deprecated TYPE option.
 * I’ve also fixed the DNS blacklist issues. The queries worked, but they would 
   return false positives. I replaced zen.spamhaus.org with the two correct servers:
   sbl.spamhaus.org and xbl.spamhaus.org.
 * I also updated the gethostbyname logic to prevent false positives. It will only
   show the banned ip error if one of the proper DNS blacklist servers recognizes
   the IP address.
 * I don’t have much time to maintain a plugin, but I did fix what wasn’t working
   for me — and what most people are complaining about on here. I cannot guarantee
   that I’ll be able to fix any other issues as I seldom have time to visit the 
   forums.
