TYPE is only relevant to the column, however. I think that mismatch in documentation is just due to documentation becoming more indepth. But saying that, I don't still run a 7.* DB, so can't attest to it with all certainty. smile (Unless I get one installed to test). big_smile

ALTER TABLE can alter the data type of an existing column

That's the release notes for 8.0.0. wink

Re: Feedback on the update process

Hi smile

I'm testing the new 1.3RC version to get in shape for the update when the final version comes out.

I ran into this error:

Converting search word 30372 …
Converting search word 30373 …
An error was encountered

The error occurred on line 1073 in /home/chali/public_html/new_punbb/db_update.php

Database reported: Duplicate entry '¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡' for key 1 (Errno: 1062).

Additional information:

- Mi forum is in spanish.
- With around 472385 posts
- URL: http://smashingpumpkins.com.ar/board/index.php

And I'm updating a copy of course.

I have some PHP knowledge and I'd ve glad to help in any debbuging.

Thanks

Quick fix is altering 'UPDATE ' to 'UPDATE IGNORE '. Though I'm not sure it is completely safe.
Anyway, you can reindex forum after update.

We've reproduced this issue and will think of correct db_update.php fix.

I truncated the search index cache tables and everything went fine smile (and fast! for a 500k posts forum).
Looking forward for the final release!
Thanks Anatoly
