On the front end of my website there is a huge Event Espresso error that shows up. then I on the backend I have a WordPress database error that shows up-WordPress database error: [Tablespace for table ‘site264960_db.wp_esp_event_question_mailchimp_field‘ exists. Please DISCARD the tablespace before IMPORT]
CREATE TABLE wp_esp_event_question_mailchimp_field ( QMC_ID INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT , EVT_ID INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL , QST_ID TEXT NOT NULL , QMC_mailchimp_field_id TEXT NOT NULL , PRIMARY KEY (QMC_ID) ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_520_ci
Follwed by a lot more. How do I resolve this?

Thank you!

Hi,

The error you’re seeing looks like something your web host will need to fix. Here’s a related stack exchange thread that explains more:

Can you contact your host and ask them to check the database?

Hi- thank you for the reply. I got in touch with my hosting and they have resolved the issue but now we have lost all of our data. they tried doing a back up but keep getting this error message- ERROR 1005 (HY000) at line 342: Can’t create table site264960_db.wp_esp_event_mailchimp_list_group (errno: 168 “Unknown (generic) error from engine”)

Do you know what this is and how to fix it?
Thank you!

It sounds like they need to update the version of MySQL on the server, and at the very least they could restore a backup excluding that one table. So at the very least you’ll have most of your data back, just not the event’s MailChimp groups.
