      Upgrading after reinstall - Unknown column 'icondata' in 'field list'

      Updating 4.0.5 (I believe) to the current:
      Code:

An exception occurred: Database Error: SELECT feedid,icondata FROM `vw_feed` ORDER BY feedid ASC LIMIT 0,500 Mysqli prepare error: Unknown column 'icondata' in 'field list' in /home/mysite/public_html/vault/core/controller/db/xf.php on line 171

      Took a while to figure this out, but this is because you uninstalled between versions 4.0.0-4.0.2 as you mentioned here: https://www.vaultwiki.org/issues/4165/

      The uninstaller is better at uninstalling mixed versions in newer releases (i.e. when the files have a different version than the database version), but it's still not recommended these days because similar problems can still arise.

      Comparing what would have happened with your reported mixed versions, and considering how far you already made it in the "upgrade" from 4.0.0, you might only need to run this query:
      Code:
      ALTER TABLE vw_feed
ADD COLUMN icondata VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT ''
      Then you can refresh the upgrade script and try again.

      Since there are so many different combinations of possible mixed versions you can use to really screw up your database when you uninstall with the intent of (even eventually) reinstalling, it would be hard to handle them all. The best solution for the next release would be for the installer to validate any existing tables it detects to make sure they have the expected schema. Currently it thinks an existing table is there because you accidentally double-clicked the "Next Step" button.

      In response to my previous comment about a "best solution for the next release," there is no way to automatically detect and "fix" when a database has been damaged by mixed file versions without explicitly stipulating how the resulting damage will look, without risk of further data loss. Any automatic detection will raise a false positive during an upgrade from the Lite version, resulting in catastrophic data losses during that upgrade.

      We will continue to fix possible causes of damage resulting from mixed file versions or from incomplete uninstall processing if there is a flaw in the related process, but we will not be able to auto-detect and correct the damage itself that results from a random case. Whenever mixed file versions or an incomplete uninstall is the culprit, there must always be a human investigation of the flawed database before a fix can be issued.

      Making the change in my previous post should correct the damage that I see in your case.

      I have made the appropriate changes to the 4.0.6 upgrade script to detect this particular case and workaround matching damage as of the next release.

      Thanks for the very quick reply. Have one more issue now with 4.0.7

      That error occurs when upgrading 4.0.3 directly to 4.0.7 (so I guess your estimate of 4.0.5 was off). To workaround the issue without making any file edits, go to Options > Options > Debug Options > VaultWiki Version, and change the value (which is probably "4.0.3") to "4.0.6"
