Title: Unknown column 'validation_url' in 'field list'

Updated SMF 2.1 for more recent with GitHab. When installing any modifications, the following error occurs:
Unknown column 'validation_url' in 'field list'

What mod is it? Or does it happen with all the mods?

Updated 2.1 from what to what? Did you run the upgrader?

I made an update with file replacement. Everything works except installing and removing mods.

Yes, we realise this, but it matters what you updated from and what you updated to, which is why using 2.1 is not recommended unless you're familiar with things like GitHub.

Previously, I was updated and there were no problems.

Updated to what version?

If you use 2.1 RCs from GitHub, you MUST run the upgrader as well.

I update periodically from GitHub. So I had the previous most recent version, but in this case the problem. How can I start the update?

You have to upload the upgrade files from /other in the github package and run upgrade.php.

What Sir Osis said.

Also, if you are going to update from GitHub, it's really useful to at least track which *day* you did it on, if not the actual commit so we know exactly what code you have (helps not waste time in debugging)

I solved the problem by this method. Thanks everyone!

Just remember to do this every time you update from GitHub.
