Hi everybody I'm here for first time so I hope to resolve this problem. Thanks in advance
First of all this is an old forum that I get the responsability to migrate and update in the last version. The problem is that I did all this steps and I have this problem:
Fatal error: SQL ERROR [ mysqli ]<br /><br />Unknown column 'user_msnm' in 'field list' [1054]
Steps that I did even using SSH to use the command php ./bin/phpbbcli.php db:migrate --safe-mode
Can you help me?This update method will remove most existing files and then put the new ones in place.
Make a backup of the original files
Make a backup of the database
Download the phpBB 3.3 Full Package archive
Extract the contents of the archive to your computer and open the phpBB3 directory
Delete the following files from the package:
The config.php file
The images/ directory
The files/ directory
The store/ directory
On your website, delete all files from your board EXCEPT for:
The config.php file
The ext/ directory
The images/ directory
The files/ directory
The store/ directory
The styles/ directory
Upload the contents of the phpBB3 directory from your computer to your forum's directory. You may be prompted to overwrite the remaining files. If prompted to merge or overwrite directories, choose to merge them.
The docs/ folder is for your personal use and it is not necessary to upload it to your forum.
Update the database:
Tip
For large boards, you may wish to update via the command line instead of using a web browser. From your board's root, execute the following command: php ./bin/phpbbcli.php db:migrate --safe-mode
