In your forum root, is your config writeable ?

Do you have pdo installed on your server ?

Perhaps you uploaded files incompletely !

Is config chmodded 777

For starters you need to get a MOD ( to delete your first link )

As it links directly to your ADMIn Dashboard. Gimme a minute or 3 to think about this

Are you installing via FTP ?

@loquorit welcome to Vanilla :-)

This is the first hit I got from Google:

The error come when MySQL doesn't have any free hard disk space to write to. Check your /tmp directory, that's where I had run into problems. I had forgot to make my backup script delete older backups and it kept writing backups until the disk was full.
