Description of my issue:

Both my full and incremental b/u's have been working flawlessly for a few months now, until today. I get this error during each of them. I analysed the log and then downloaded it. Not much help AT ALL. Attached anyhow.

Based on the error I reinstalled chronoforms completely as I hadn't started using it yet so it was no big deal.

AEAbstractDump :: Database Error: Table 'bitnami_joomla.florida_chronoengine_chronoforms_datatable_nota_bene_data_entry' doesn't exist SQL=SHOW CREATE TABLE `florida_chronoengine_chronoforms_datatable_nota_bene_data_entry`

Joomla! 2.5.27

Hello Jon,

can you see that table in your database?
Since you are not using Chronoforms at all I'd suggest you to delete that table (if possible); if you can't see that in your table list you have to contact your host and ask them to take a look at it.
I suspect that MySQL still has the reference to such table, even if it doesn't exists.

In the meantime you can exclude that table using the Database exclusion list. Again, if you don't see that table in the list, you can still exclude it using the following regex inside the Regex Database Table exclusion: #__chronoengine_chronoforms_datatable_nota_bene_data_entry

That was it. There ended up being more than one messed up table. It took a flush then delete to get the B/U's running again. Many thanks... Jon
