SMF Version: SMF 1.1 RC2
Please help..
I am relatively new to the community - been using SMF for about a month now, and have loved it. I promise before appealing to the boards for help I've scoured Google and the support boards and haven't been able to find my particular issue.
Anyway, here it is -
- This morning I backed up my board... table structure and all, and have it located on my hd.
- Later, I upgraded v1.0.7 to 1.1RC2. => Came off without a hitch. Smooth as can be.
- Followed that by installing Tiny Portal .86 => Again, flawless.
- I monkeyed around a bit later adding a "Bible" mod (which never worked and caused errors, so I uninstalled) and a mod for tracking users (didn't work either, but didn't initially cause an error, so I uninstalled).
Long story short, I got an error that I could not get rid of that wouldn't allow me to access my forum front page 'bfamne5_smf1.smf_bible' doesn't exist File: home/bfamne5/public_html/forum/Sources/Subs.php .
I could view some threads by going backdorr through the calendar, but try as I might, I couldn't get back to the forum main page.
I decided to restore from my backup using the backup query on my HD through MyPHPAdmin. Mind you, I didn't have a backup from after my upgrade to 1.1 and Tiny Portal, but had the one from that morning. I have attempted multiple times to restore, and am now seeing, "Unknown column 'a.attachmentType' in 'field list'".
Is there any hope for me? Please advise on what options I might have to be able to restore my database to any prior state. Most of all, I don't want to lose the posts.
Many thanks!
You'll have to manually remove the code that was added during your mod installations.
