SOLVED:
----------

hello djangobb-friends.

The reason why i got the IndexVersionError at /forum/1/topic/add/ was...
I played around in django admin and deleted some posts in the admin interface.
But i think thats not the way it should be done. I think one should delete posts
directly in the forum (logged in as admin).

so the posts where not present in the database, but the indexes where still
present in /projectfolder/djangobb_index. So i had to "synchronise" the database
and djangobb_index. I knew the database was empty so the easiest way was to
delete alle files in djangobb_index.

Now everything works fine again. And i am able to post!
Hope this could help you guys with similar problems.
