Vivek Chopra	Thursday 18 March 2004 10:30:32 am I am trying to upgrade Exponential from 3.1-1 to 3.3.3 I downloaded the 3.3.3 package and in the update folder there are sql files to update the database. One sql file seems to be missing which is needed to update from 3.2-2 to 3.2-3. Without this file I cannot update the database any further. Has anyone experienced this problem ? any solution? Please help. Vivek
Björn X	Thursday 18 March 2004 11:52:48 am I might be that there was no change in the db layout between those versions. -----from a doc Unfortunatelly this is the theory. Some times it works and somethings it doesn't. Here are serval things you should try too if things are failing. run the updatescripts again update/common/scripts/* still no luck? Try this... Install a fresh version with a demo package under a new DB (Plain preferred) clear all rows from all tables of that new db dump your old one (without tables, just the raw data) press it into the db (manual fix the sql erros) run the updatescripts change settings and do not try to use your old ones --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Unfortunatelly this is the theory. Some times it works and somethings it doesn't. Here are serval things you should try too if things are failing.

run the updatescripts again update/common/scripts/*
still no luck? Try this...

Install a fresh version with a demo package under a new DB (Plain preferred)
clear all rows from all tables of that new db
dump your old one (without tables, just the raw data)
press it into the db (manual fix the sql erros)
run the updatescripts
change settings and do not try to use your old ones
