So, I'm upgrading a Magento install from 1.3.2.1 to 1.7.0.2. But I get the following error when I try to convert the database to the new format.
a:5:{i:0;s:239:"Error in file: "/home/user/public_html/app/code/core/Mage/Customer/sql/customer_setup/mysql4-upgrade-1.4.0.0.7-1.4.0.0.8.php" - SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 1005 Can't create table 'user_new.customer_form_attribute' (errno: 150)";i:1;s:994:"#0 /home/user/public_html/app/code/core/Mage/Core/Model/Resource/Setup.php(645): Mage::exception('Mage_Core', 'Error in file: ...')

Anybody who have fixed this problem? Google don't give me any answers only people who have the same problem.
The tables in Magento 1.3 are MyISAM and later are converted to InnoDB. Now the 150 error message you are getting is related to FKs:
If MySQL reports an error number 1005 from a CREATE TABLE statement, and the error message refers to error 150, table creation failed because a foreign key constraint was not correctly formed. Similarly, if an ALTER TABLE fails and it refers to error 150, that means a foreign key definition would be incorrectly formed for the altered table. To display a detailed explanation of the most recent InnoDB foreign key error in the server, issue SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS.
