    Killing me here!

    I try to update from 2.4 to 2.5.1 and after agreeing to the license I get the following on screen with no styling:

    {"error":"
    Error Number: 1054<\/p>\n\n
    
    Unknown column 'ref_ip' in 'exp_comments'<\/p>\n\n
    
    ALTER TABLE `exp_comments` CHANGE \n\t`ref_ip` `ref_ip` varchar(45)<\/p>\n\n
    
    Filename: \/path\/to\/website_files\/mcp\/expressionengine\/modules\/referrer\/upd.referrer.php<\/p>\n\n
    
    Line Number: 162<\/p>"}

    Could we please prioritize helping me on this one.  If this is another 3 week support thread I’m just not going to upgrade.  I can’t afford the extra time.

    just background that might help.  This is an MSM site, the system folder has been renamed mcp, and it has been moved out of document_root.  This site was upgraded a couple months ago from 1.7.1 to 2.4

    Hey UltraBob,

    I am sorry to hear you are running into this bug. You are not having a great experience with 2.5.1 so far and I am sorry about that. I am glad that you are back on track with the bug fix.

    If you need anything else, please just let me know by opening a new thread.

    Cheers,
