I'm working on this upgrade. Trying to carefully follow directions, but I always get an error. (I say "always" because this is probably the 5th time I've started this project, dropped it, and came back to try again. This time I WILL finish. I've taken days off. It's scheduled. I'm committed. )

Here's what I've done:

1 - Created brand new data base for a test site.
2 - Created sub directory to install complete Zen 1.5.1 files into.
3 - Installed. Tested vanilla site. All works fine.
3 - Export my Zen 1.3.8a database and import it into the 1.5.1 (I assume the import replaces the 1.5.1 tables completely)

When it finishes I get the following error. Can someone tell me if this is important or can be ignored? Thanks a million!
