Hi,
I restored the database and did a clean install of 1.8.2, make sure it worked, then
unpacked 1.9.2 and had the support guy run update.php (I have no command-line access, so
unfortunately I have to rely on them) and he didn't report any problems. Mind you I
have no idea if they are doing something wrong or not, as for some reason they never
bother to give me the output even when I request it. I am assuming they are running the
script properly since it isn't exactly rocket science. Its one of those support ticket
based systems, which makes communication with them difficult.
Anyway, same exact problem as before. So then I delete everything and restore the database
as before, do a fresh install of 1.8.2., works fine, then unpack 1.9.2 and I go with the
web installer this time around. Worked smoothly and updated the tables perfectly, not even
a need for refreshLinks. Which is strange because when I upgraded from 1.6.8 to 1.7.1 and
ran the web installer, I had to run refreshLinks.
So anyway, everything works fine now. Either the support guy at my provider was doing
something wrong with update.php or the script has some issue with the server. Its also
possible I suppose that he wasn't running it at all and just saying he did, but that
would be completely bizarre behavior. But one never knows with these characters.
Thanks,
Sven

Hi Brion,
I did everything according to the upgrade instructions as per usual
since the 1.6 branch: do backups, unpack the new files over the old
ones, make sure AdminSettings is setup properly, and run update.php.
I've also run refreshLinks.php since 1.6 for good measure. This is
the first time I'm receiving this error, so this is pretty strange.
I'm upgrading from 1.8.2 to 1.9.2.
Run update.php on 1.9.2 and save the output. Confirm that it's creating
the table.
