Update to 4.0.5 failed
When I installed the update to 4.0.5 the updates to the database didn’t run for some reason (I’ve no idea why). Is there a way I can force the db updates to run, or will I have to do it manually?
Many thanks,
Charles

Did you follow these steps?

Re: Update to 4.0.5 failed
Yes I did. When I logged into the admin UI, I didn’t get the usual upgrade process, it just went straight in, which I thought was odd at the time. Here’s what diagnostics say re. the version I’m on:
Textpattern version: 4.0.5 (r2466)

To enforce the execution of the upgrade script, you’ll have to change the version number which is kept in the txp_prefs table. Using phpMyAdmin, you can look for a row in the txp_prefs table with a name of version, either by using phpMyAdmin’s search facility or by issuin this SQL query:
select * from txp_prefs where name='version'Change the val field to 4.0.4 to force a new update run:
update txp_prefs set val='4.0.4' where name='version'Another query for
select * from txp_prefs where name='version'should return 4.0.5 then. Be careful with your SQL!

Thanks, that got it. I was able to use Rob Sable’s excellent rss_admin_db_manager plugin to run the SQL – very handy!
