I’ve spent my entire day trying to get this to work and now I’m in a time crunch, so any assistance is greatly appreciated.
I have a client who had 1.4.1. She wanted a redesign. So I made a dev folder, duped out that site and upgraded that to 2.1.3. It went smoothly (relatively) and that is all fine and good. I developed her new design in 2.1.3.
But her 1.4.1 site was still live during the development. She had members register—over 300 of them, actually—between the time I initially duped the site and the impending launch date (tomorrow). (She’s a popular author.)
I exported just the member information from the original DB (1.4.1) and tried to import it into 2.1.3 to no avail.
So I made a dummy area, duped the 1.4.1 again, thinking I can upgrade it just like I did before and export the members in a 2.1.3 format and make it easier to upgrade into the new 2.1.3 “live” site.
This time, it’s not going smoothly. I keep getting stuck at 1.4.2 to 1.5. I’ve run config-check.php and I’ve added the fields it told me to. The config is writable, but it says 142 in the version number.
MySQL ERROR:
Error Number: 1050
Description: Table ‘exp_member_search’ already exists
Query: CREATE TABLE `exp_member_search` ( `search_id` varchar(32) NOT NULL, `search_date` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL, `keywords` varchar(200) NOT NULL, `fields` varchar(200) NOT NULL, `member_id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL, `ip_address` varchar(16) NOT NULL, `total_results` int(8) unsigned NOT NULL, `query` text NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`search_id`), KEY `member_id` (`member_id`) )
I’ve done this 3 times now and I’m about at my wit’s end. I don’t know what else to do. I’ve found only 2 threads on this forum and the archived veresion about it and none have been helpful or provided a concise resolution.
So I really would love help with one or both of the following:
1. A solution for getting my 1.4.1 members into 2.1.3
OR
2. A solution for upgrading 1.4.2 to 1.5 so I can try my original plan.
Please help? 😊
Thank you in advance!
