Hey Hey, that worked. thank you for your assistance. Updating the DB resolved the issue enough for me to perform the upgrade. 

i ran the tool hoping to see it display the commands like it did earlier but it went right to it. *fingers crossed* that it doesnt time out

I ran the advised commands manually but nothing further than that. can you point me in the right direction to convert?

i see this in "phpmyadmin", it couldnt be just this easy, could it?
 

Ah, sorry about that. i must've reset my password since i put that in there. Try now 🙂 

i did confirm that the db i was running the commands against is the right one. (the SQL commands call for creating "_new" tables, i see them being created and records being moved to them, before it drops the old and renames the new)

i'm not sure the issue with the FTP, i just re-copied/pasted the information and it worked for me? 

i changed the option to just "FTP" maybe that should help? it should be FTP with SSL though

the black screenshots are the sql console directly, showing the rows affected, and that the query succeeded. I did console directly to prevent the timeouts that i think i ran into the last attempt

i just modified the access information a minute ago, should be correct

i ran each of them against the right DB and, as far as i could tell, there were no errors returned (snippit below)

I tried running them through the ACP before and it broke the forum because it took too long - i ended up restoring the backup db and files. I can try it again... but dont want to risk breaking it again. 

to add, as you can prob. imagine some dont get affected. I did get some rows affected indications 

I dont know. it just says "Database problems" when you click on it, it shows a novel (about 1k lines) 

I'm trying to update a large forum to 4.6.12.1. during the upgrade it asks to run some DB cleanup commands (and by some, i mean it was a small Novel). The Database is quite large so i ran everything manually on the console directly. I hit "check again" after doing so but it still reports the same command. On the support page its showing DB issues, but i'm unable to get past them. is there an index i'm supposed to run to realign the dashboard? am i not waiting long enough for the checks to.. check out?
