This is wrong. Rename it back again. You should never have to rename 
one table.

Yep, you "removed" it :/

What you have to do is not to remove the old midcom, but to make your
installation find the new midcom. Take a look at the page that starts
loading midcom on your host. Most probably it is using an old
midcom-template that is lying around outside the one midcom-template
upgrades. If so, change the root page to the one in the new template.

That might solve it - or at least get you going in the right direction
(this might break something I haven't thought about).

Hint: the point here is that somewhere in your page (most probably in
code-global) the old /midcom/midcom snippet is loaded instead of an
include midcom.php.
Hope this helps
