when i run the error report it goes to 30% and then im getting this error message:

Table './phat_forum/smf_log_topics' is marked as crashed and last (automatic?) repair failed
File: /home/phat/forum.dailymobile.se/Sources/RepairBoards.php
Line: 1103

Note: It appears that your database may require an upgrade. Your forum's files are currently at version SMF 1.1.11, while your database is at version 1.1.6. The above error might possibly go away if you execute the latest version of upgrade.php.
