[[Template forums/front/forums/forumDisplay is throwing an error. This theme may be out of date. Run the support tool in the AdminCP to restore the default theme.]] Just seeing what is the best way forward, try to run the update again or run the support tool next? Many thanks!

Marc Stridgen Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 You would need to contact your hosting company on this issue. The problem you have is a crashed or missing table. In. this case the table core_follow_count_cache Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unslaved Posted August 29, 2022 Author Share Posted August 29, 2022 (edited) Looks like hosting is not sure why the table just is not there anymore, is there not a way to insert that missing table into the database? Just to note that i did change the php to version 7.4 Edited August 29, 2022 by Unslaved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would lose all data associated with that table and it may create relationship errors so it would be recommended to restore the complete database.

Unslaved Posted August 29, 2022 Author Share Posted August 29, 2022 OK, i do have a back up that i can check. What about this error is this related or can it be fixed by running the tool [[Template forums/front/forums/forumDisplay is throwing an error. This theme may be out of date.

Jim M Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 If you were not able to complete the upgrade, you will need to wait till that is done. Essentially, if you apply files but don't run the upgrader, you can expect to see some issues. If after you complete the upgrade process, you still see this. You will want to disable all third party applications/plugins and switch to an unmodified theme to see if it still exists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unslaved Posted August 29, 2022 Author Share Posted August 29, 2022 I think that is the issue, the upgrade wont run because of this missing table, but no idea why it just disappeared in the first place as i haven't had any issues before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim M Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 Sorry, you would need tp work with your hosting provider to understand why it disappeared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unslaved Posted August 29, 2022 Author Share Posted August 29, 2022 (edited) Hosting is looking into it, also checking the older database. Silly question, but what if i have a fresh board install, then did a migration from one board to another?

For our software to convert data from one installation to another, it would need to be on the same release and might end up with a very similar situation with the software attempting to read the missing table still. You can not simply move over your database, like I believe you're asking here, via PHPMyAdmin or something. You would run into a lot more of conflicts.

Unslaved Posted August 29, 2022 Author Share Posted August 29, 2022 It wouldn't be via phpmyadmin, but what about the migration tool that you have? hoping that would just capture all the post and member data only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're more than welcome to try our converter tools, which can be downloaded from the Client Area, but it may just result in the same error as it will need to read from the same database. Just be sure to take a full backup (files and folders) prior to attempting anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unslaved Posted August 29, 2022 Author Share Posted August 29, 2022 I know that you mentioned about running the upgrade first (which i cant do at the moment), but what about just switching to the default theme, not sure if that would at least fix the post issue.

You can certainly try that but if you have applied the files for the next release or this is related to the missing table. You either need to revert to a backup and/or re-apply the files from the release you were on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unslaved Posted August 29, 2022 Author Share Posted August 29, 2022 Not sure if would be related to the issue or not, but the upgrade did not run as it couldnt get past the FTP verification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, believe I may have been confused by what were you saying. Is this in the automatic upgrade process? Have you tried to upload manually the files? To do a manual upgrade, you would do this by downloading a full set of files in the Client Area and exacting them to your computer. Once done, upload the contents of the "ips_*****" folders to your server, overwriting what is there. When all files have successfully uploaded, you will want to go to /admin/upgrade to complete the upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unslaved Posted August 29, 2022 Author Share Posted August 29, 2022 Correct this was the auto upgrade, have not tried the manual upgrade yet, but i can test this on a dev install, i take it the board license will allow a test site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
