customers not allowed to login??

[buydemon]

hey, i have the follwing problem. Ive kinda got an idea how to sort it but im not very sure.... or good at this lol. Any help appreciated.

 

When a customer tries to login they get the following error:

 

1054 - Unknown column 'member_level' in 'field list'

 

select customers_id, customers_firstname, customers_password, customers_email_address, customers_default_address_id, member_level from customers where customers_email_address = '[email protected]'

 

[TEP STOP]

 

i then read up on another post and ran an sql query:

 

ALTER TABLE `customers` ADD `member_level` INT(5) DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL;

 

The following php code was created from this:

 

$sql = 'ALTER TABLE `customers` ADD `member_level` INT(5) DEFAULT \'0\' NOT NULL;';

 

im not sure where to go next or even if im on the right track. Thanks for any help,
