The unique identifier specified is already in use by [cat].

When upgrading VaultWiki · 4.1.0 Beta 2 -> 4.1.1

I quickly get this:
Oops! We ran into some problems.
The unique identifier specified is already in use by [cat].

Which aborts the upgrade process.

My apologies for not responding earlier. Normally I get SMS alerts for new bugs, but not this time.

It sounds like you have a BB-Code named "CAT" which has the vw_category_tag identifier but is not associated with the VaultWiki add-on. This should not be possible and suggests a leftover side effect from some problem you may have had in the past. If you are not aware of how the data originally got this way, there is little we can do from the software side, since no one else has had an issue like this when upgrading.

You should manually change the CAT BB-Code's add-on assignment to VaultWiki via XenForo's BB-Code manager. Then attempt the upgrade again.

AdminCP > Content > BB Code > Custom BB Codes > [CAT] > set "Add-on" = VaultWiki.
You may need to be in development mode to see this field. If this action creates a src/addons/vw/vw/_output folder, you need to delete the folder before attempting to upgrade or you may end up with missing add-on data later (by default, XenForo upgrades from the _output folder rather than from the add-on).

I have enabled development mode in config.php but see no new options in the edit bbcode page nor on the custom bb code overview. What am i missing?

The only requirement I see in XenForo's code is that development mode be enabled.

Then the edit bbcode page should have:

Code:

[ ] Allow this BB code in signatures [ ] Enabled Addon: (select)

Right before the Advanced Options section.
