Two questions here, second is a little more complicated than first.
1 – I have 18 ‘extra’ tables in my Drupal Commons installation. Is it safe to just drop these tables from the database? (I can provide this list if it is helpful)
2 – I have 3 ‘mismatching table’ error on the same site. Is it safe to just update these tables?
The specific tables with mismatch are:
- search_dataset
- search_index
- search_node_links
Specifically, the size of the varchar is different than it should be. Can I just update the SQL to fix this?
The advice given here is ‘do nothing’ http://drupal.org/node/263582
