    Correct, I have 1.6.9.  I upgraded from 1.6.7 Build 20090515 to 1.6.9.

    Thanks ACT. You should be able to continue to Step 4. If you encounter any errors please post them here before doing anything else, including using the back button, etc.

    At http://alachuaconservationtrust.org.lhost7.atlantic.net/system/index.php?C=wizard&M=do_update&language=english&ajax_progress=yes

    I get:

    {"error":"

    Table 'alachuaee21.exp_weblog_fields' doesn't exist

    \n\n

    "}

    ACT,

    Take a look at your 1.6.9 database. Does it have a table named ‘exp_weblogs’ or ‘exp_channels’?

    There is data in exp_weblogs.

    exp_channels does not exist.

    It’s failing on exp_weblog_fields- which should exist.  Has it been changed to exp_channel_fields already?  Do you see either of those in the current database?  If not- check your backup and make sure it has the exp_weblog_fields table in it.

    Hi Robin,

    exp_weblog_fields exists at the start of the upgrade and has data in it.

    exp_channel_fields does not exist at the start of the upgrade.

    At the moment, after the wizard has failed, exp_channel_fields has data in it and exp_weblog_fields does not exist.

    Hi ACT,

    This is definitely unusual. I notice you’re still using a temporary URL for your site. Do you by any chance have the 1.6.9 site up and running on a local MAMP or WAMP server? Attempting the upgrade there would help rule out any server issues.

    Can you also confirm that the site (at the 1.6.9 version) is completely working prior to the upgrade?

    Hi Brandon,

    I do not have a local server. I have poked around the upgraded 1.6.9 site and it looks good.  How should I test it?

    Can I remove these from the config.php?

    $conf['cp_url'] = "http://alachuaconservationtrust.org/act/index.php";
    $conf['site_url'] = "http://alachuaconservationtrust.org/";

    ACT, since I requested login to your site, I’m going to close this particular thread in favor of the other one.
