@Reuben: You should always back up your DB before ANY operation.

The script mangled your database because you should not have run it. As the title says, it’s a prefix changer tool. It’s not meant to run on databases without table prefixes.

CAREFUL WITH THIS FOLKS.. Backup your DB first. I just totally mangled by DB while trying to add prefixes to the tables that didn’t have prefixes before.

Excellent tool… I started reading about securing my site and changing the prefix was on top of the list. This saved me a lot of time as I used it on 2 sites with no problem. Thank you!

Hi,

Nice script, BUT…

Could not RENAME TABLE users_roles TO finance_roles : Table ‘finance_roles’ already exists

This is not a good solution for this kind of errors!
Perhaps, you need to include “existing header” to the code!
