Activating bbPress

    I downloaded and installed bbPress, but when I tried to activate it I got this error message:-

    “You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ‘TYPE=MyISAM’ at line 9 on line: 1471”

    After consulting my host, who suggested reading https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/cant-activate-plugin-2?replies=6, I tried deactivating bbPress and WordPress Automatic Upgrade; but they seem to be still active. On attempting to delete bbPress with a view to reinstalling it, a message appears at the top of the Dashboard:-

    “You cannot delete a plugin while it is active on the main site.”

    Suggestions please. The site is https://www.greenfriends.org.uk, using WP v.3.8; but there is nothing of bbPress to see there until I can successfully activate it and Forums show up on the Dashboard.
