Will L. Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 I tried 6 test 2.1.7 IPB's and each one fails at the end spot and has a message sayingunknown table I think Taylor H. had same issue well 6 same exact ipb file copies and not 1 was upgradableI do hope you at IPS get this fixed before FINAL otherwise I think alot of us may remain with 2.1.7I am not being rude or mean its awful to have 6 test IPB's fail on same server type Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowBlower Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 I get to the part where it says "15 queries run..." then it just redirects me to a blank white page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GregF Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Well it is release candidate so of course some people would have issues but it seems the majority of users got it working fine. No offence but 3-4 people out of the entire customer base is not exactly 'red alert' especially for something that has been clearly noted to not be used on a live board and not supported yet.

Management Matt Posted October 19, 2006 Management Share Posted October 19, 2006 The only other person to encounter a problem is Taylor - and it's because of a modification as the table field he mentions isn't part of the standard IPB schematic.

Management Matt Posted October 19, 2006 Management Share Posted October 19, 2006 Would it surprise you to learn that 'bbcode_parser' is neither a field nor a table in the default installation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canadian Hotdogman Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 So guys what can I do to fix my problem and continue from here? Please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Microo Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Strange i upgraded my board, and it went quick, and without problems, everything is working perfectly... Until now i never had problems with 2.2 since beta1... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beeman Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 ya my upgrade stalled after the "15 querys ran" giving me a blank page, but im guessing its down to the size of my database (1gb), so re-ran the installer manually running the querys in shell and all was fine.

Frontpage Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 It's oh so much clearer now. ;)I would not riducle this customer so quickly. I have been using IPB since the beginning and before that when it was Ikonboard in .cgi format.So, I consider myself a veteran admin.I did the upgrade as well last night from 2.1.7 to 2.2. RC1 and it also failed due to a MYSQL error at the end of the installation.Luckily, I did this in a test environment and did not toast a few hundred thousand posts.I think I will wait until it is out of RC status before I attempt it again.

GregF Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Your missing the point, it's a RC version there is no support and it even says you should not be using it on live boards. So why does anyone care that there may be problems.Luckily, I did this in a test environment and did not toast a few hundred thousand posts.Do not use this software on a public install. Wait for the final release for your public boards.Do you think IPS put these warnings up to look pretty? They can't be serious now can they. If you 'veteran forum admins' are stupid enough to upgrade your live boards with a RC and things go wrong you deserve to be rediculed. If this was a final release you would have grounds to complain.

If you 'veteran forum admins' are stupid enough to upgrade your live boards with a RC and things go wrong you deserve to be rediculed. If this was a final release you would have grounds to complain.A) Enough with the personal attacks.B) The point is that on a 'test' board, in which we 'did a test' conversion. It failed. No harm done as it was a 'test' board setup with a copy of 1.1 Gig worth of data. Part of beta ware analysis is feedback from endusers to find flaws. Therefore, we should not be silent when we find trouble as it does not help the developers.I can say though that this is the first time we have ever had a problem with an upgrade. If I have time today, I will try to reproduce the error and display some screen shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfarber Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 What exactly was the SQL error you received? That kind of information is paramount to fixing any problems if they exist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phinsup Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 I think when you give vague information like "It doesn't work" without giving any details as to the error, browser, eg (table name in error) then the only thing you are doing is 'Barneys Girlfriend'ing. If you actually want to get something fixed give some feedback, give some details. Afterall it is an RC and I'd be pretty suprised if there weren't any bugs in sucker.
