My b2evolution Version: 1.8.x

Hi,

Since 10 months or so, my database has been broken by trying to update b2evolution 1.8.7 to 1.9.3. Even if I got a backup of my database but was unable to upload it back. Because I had no time and enough competences, I've never succeed on that and move to others occupations.
Two days ago, I got some informations that permit me to succeed on uploading my database back. I reinstalled b2evolution 1.8.7 and it works, even if I had major problem on text encoding. I've corrected it all and now it's fine.
BUT, I'm always unable to upgrade to 1.9.x & more.
Here's the error:

I becomes completly exhausted about all the problems I had.
If I can not succed on update, since I've now saved my base, I plan to create a simple text file with all posts & comments copy-paste from my working version, then erase & install a 2.x from scratch and manually post back all my blog!

If you have any help taht can avoid me to do that… (I've found nothing at the moment on the forum to solve my problem)
Thank you for your support.

Could you edit conf\_advanced.php and set $debug = 1;
IF YOU MADE A BACKUP AND TEST IT, you can empty the table evo_useragents before doing the upgrade.

- try to update directly from 1.8.x to 1.10.3 (instead of 1.9.3)

If you want to setup a test environnment, here is my proposal:
- install [url=http://www.wampserver.com/]wamp[/url] or xamp on your local machine to setup a test environment.
- restore your database on this environment
- copy a backup of html files of your running b2evo to this environment.
- using phpmyadmin go to entry blog_siteurl in table evo_blogs and set it to http://localhost/yourpath
- edit conf\_basic_config.php and set $baseurl = http://localhost/yourpath
- verify that your test blog is working.

I check Tazintosh's database and there is a problem inside. The database was corrupted (duplicate index on same column). May be it's the updgrade script. Anyway, I removed duplicate indexes.

Thank you so much slaamp.
I've been able to run 1.10.3 and even 2.x which is running on my blog http://blog.tazintosh.com right now.

I've a bunch of work to do cause I want to edit my skin & add new effect features on it.

Thank you again.
