Did you Continue Installation ?
And watch out for http | https option (see screenshot)
Did you check the .htaccess for an http directive?
When I did try to continue, I got an error about the skins table.
Here is the .htaccess that is in my /public_html directory.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule ^ https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

There is no .htaccess file in the /public_html/blog directory where I have the software installed.
So I reset the database from the backup and tried again,
I'm not that familiar with .htaccess and not sure it's relevant
b2evo uploads it's own .htaccess in its root folder which you can read.
But the issue seems to be a problem with the skin recognition.
The database is very old and the updates should be automatically incremented DB v.9407 to DB v13070 will be a bit slow maybe, so you could just try again and see if it gets past the skin issue.
The problem with a field not existing in database implies a jump in updating with parameters that are not available.
I think you'll have to wait for one of the developers like @fplanque to shed some light on this :(
By the way is this an ftp upload or an automatic upgrade.?

I FTP uploaded all of the files to my server. Then I ran the install and picked the upgrade option.
I have posted my latest results in that thread along with a copy of the error_log file contents. Hopefully, they will have some suggestions.
Thanks for the help.
So I deleted the database, then restored it from the backup I had from before the upgrade, and then I tried again but with different baseurl info in the _basic_config.php file,
$baseurl = 'https://www.friday.com/blog/';
