I have started another drupal project today and am running in to yet more problems, I'm not the happiest with version 7.x.
Here is what I have done. 1 upload fresh copy of drupal 7.9 2 wile that is happening creating the db 3 run the install and it goes just fine. Chose minimal 5 go to content types and define my content type 6 needed more so enabled field ui and everything related to field 7 went and grabbed file field sources 8. activate it in modules 9 back to content type and tried to configure it and when I saved I see db errors:
Error message Notice: Undefined index: field types in field_ui_widget_type_options() (line 1435 of /home/example/public_html/med/modules/field_ui/field_ui.admin.inc). Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in field_ui_widget_type_options() (line 1435 of /home/example/public_html/med/modules/field_ui/field_ui.admin.inc).
I am not understanding why I am running in to these errors, never had these kind of problems as often under drupal 5 and 6. So maybe I am doing things wrong?

Bugs like these are very specific and you may receive better feedback via the issue queues on drupal.org rather than the support list. Check the core issue queue or the filefield sources issue queue.
I didn't quite get Step 2, but make sure if it is a fresh install you are starting out with a completely blank db (no data or tables). Assuming that you have read all the README documentation and followed the instructions for installing both, nothing you have described is "wrong."
As a side note: this could also be usability related. The sentiment "I'm doing it wrong" is dangerous because users who express this are perhaps doing everything that seems intuitive to them, but there's a usability or design problem that exists and subsequently leads to the error. This user's perspective is really valuable for those of us developing Drupal core and modules; it provides a use case not yet considered that we can fix.

I just erased everything and used drupal 7.8 with the same steps and no error messages.
Clearification on step 2, wile I was uploading the drupal files to the server I was creating the db (multitasking).
