    Hi,

    I initially get the error when upgrading 2.1.3 to 2.4 > - I got around this by commenting out that offending line, and the others that came in the way…. but it got to a point on ud_240.php where line 83 was causing issues with the water mark..the section was:

    private function _update_watermarks_table()
     {
      // Rename offset columns
      $this->EE->dbforge->modify_column(
       'file_watermarks',
       array(
        'wm_x_offset' => array(
         'name' => 'wm_hor_offset',
         'type' => 'int'
        ),
        'wm_y_offset' => array(
         'name' => 'wm_vrt_offset',
         'type' => 'int'
        )
       )
      );
     }

    I commented this out….. got a blank screen on refresh….. removed parts of it…. blank screen….. so something isn’t going right…. would be nice if it just ran smooth from the start! lol…

    anyhoo, any advice?

    Hi 11Media,

    I am sorry to hear you are running into this problem.

    Is this your first time through the update? We typically see this error when an update was attempted but failed.

    If this is the case, please follow these directions in order to run the installation. Pay special attention to the section titled “Retrying After a Failed Upgrade”.

    Please let me know how that goes.

    Cheers!
