Phoca Forum

Here, I'm again ....

I hv changed the #_table accordingly to: xxx_table. Via: /administrator/components/com_phocagallery/install/sql/mysql > install.utf8.sql & uninstall.utf8.sql
No success. Still the: 1046 .... error (frontend)

Backend: all categories/pictures are there.
In phpMyAdmin: data are stored, i.e. xxx_phocagallery
Should I go again to phpMyAdmin > SQL > update?

This: https://www.phoca.cz/documents/2-phoca-g ... em-solving I checked several .... times
For today, I gave up, sorry about.

Thanks for understanding, Christine

I don't understand the way you've changed the #_table.
What have to do is:
1. Download the Pgoca Gallery-script.
2. Open the script in Notepad++
3. Change the #__ with your table-prefix.
4. Save the script file.
5. Go to phpMyAdmin and click SQL
5. Click Import
6. Browse to the script file and start the import.

Now the tables are correctly set in your database and the errors should be solved.

For sure: This is my workarounmd. I don't know if Jan Pavelka has some better information for this kind of updates.

Hi woody4u,

point 1: administrator/components/com_phocagallery/install/sql/mysql
There are: > install.utf8.sql & uninstall.utf8.sql

points 2 + 4: I made. Of course in Notepad++ (utf8 without BOM)

And then I didn't know 'how to run'.

points 5-6 I will try now.

Thanks, Christine

Hi woody4u,

As mentioned above, I made the steps 5-6, many hours ago. Got successfully reply.
[Der Import wurde erfolgreich abgeschlossen, 14 Abfragen wurden ausgeführt install.utf8.sql]
Again the 1064 error ...

After this, tried, checked, read throug of some msql instructions etc. etc.
phpMyAdmin also shows on each prefix_phocaxxx: data sets! all categories, fotos etc. were there. I.e.: [Zeige Datensätze 0-29 .... ]

Still the 1064 error ...
I tried again the import and of course after this, I got the: #1062 Duplicate entry '1' for key 'PRIMARY' - logical
Then, I read again through information, descriptions e.t.c and tried several things, as the tables were 'duplicated'. Tried so many things, to solve correctly ...

Outcome now: I lost everthing. data set: 0. Bravo.
I have some backups (I made some), but at the moment, I also lost my head. Sorry,

Christine

Christine,
I think there is something else what is producing the error.
It is difficult to give you the correct advice.
What I have done, is what I've descriped here.
With these steps I've updates 3 sites with Phoca Gallery and Phoca Download.

I hope there is someone else who can give you some information about the error codes you receive.

Hi woody4u,

Of course I believe, that you have managed your galleries
Even there is time enough for migration vom J 2.5 to 3.X .... but I wanted to test everthing before starting on the live .....
So, I will put my backup (backup concerning before the import action).
Is is possible just to 'overwrite' the .sql or do I have to delete the database before?
After above 'action' (hope successfully) I will start again with ...
There also exists an: uninstall.utf8.sql. Could I ignore it?

Thanks for your help .... just now, I recognized your country
Bedankt voor jau hulp & ik hoop, dat ik het kan vollhouden, groetjes,

Christine

Christine,
The best you can do is empty your database and empty your root folder.
Then restore your 2.5 backup and start all-over again.

I hope you have created your backup with Akeeba Backup.In that case you can use kickstart.php and youre site back in a couple of minutes.

Thanks for the Dutch words
"jau" is "jouw" in Dutch.

Hi woody4u,

sorry for late reply, I was outside.
a) I deleted all tables in database
b) loaded the backup of .sql
c) everything fine ... all categories etc. shown
d) but in frontend: still: error 1046
e) Tried also repairing within PHPMyAdmin, 'checking' the tables .... system (database) tells me always: everything is OK. Similiar responsives.

No, I don't have Akeeba. I do not think that it will help to go back to J 2.5, because:
steps 1-4 (your post 09may) I made in that way. (Except first step: de-actived phoca-gallery)
So it seems, if would be the same situation (after that), when I start again (?)

Will check tomorrow agagain & again .....

Hartelijk bedankt voor jauw goede uitvoeringen, welterusten en tot ziens hier
Christine

Hi woody4you,

First of all: It's solved

Today I took the situation, *as it is* : Then I imported 'again' the Before that; I checked above install.utf8.sql and saw following: and changed all tables into: Maybe. that was the failure? The different of "underscore"

Just to inform you about, what the reason "could be".

Thanks for your help!

Het beste for youw en nog eens heel hartelijk bedankt, groetjes,
Christine

Christine,
