Title: Migration error JDownloads version 3 to version 4
Post by: jmgroud on 19.02.2025 11:31:50

Hello

Despite my research and reading various documents, I still have a migration error JDownloads from version 3.98.6 to 4.0.46.
I uses:
- Joomla 5.2.4
- Php 8.2.27
- Mysql 8.0.36

When I install the new version of JDownload extension (com_jdownloads_4_0_46_stable.zip), I encounter the following error:
Table: #__jdownloads_files contains incorrect number of data fields. This means that an update may not be error-free.
But what fields? What are the characteristics (parameters and positions of these fields)?

A second very strange message is displayed when I try to display the administration of JDownloads:
This version of jDownloads is not compatible with Joomla 4.x. Please install the update!

I'm with Jooomla 5.2.4! Why a message about the version 4.x?

I have read the pdf documentation indicated by Arno (Handling with incorrect jDownloads DB table structures):
- Table 'jdownloads_file's: The field 'Tags' does not exist
- Table 'jdownloads-template': The field 'Preview_id' is positioned at the end

What do I do?
Thank you in advance for your help.

Bonjour

Malgré mes recherches et lecture de documents divers, je reste sur une erreur de migration de JDownloads de la version 3.98.6 vers 4.0.46.
j'utilise :
- Joomla 5.2.4
- Php 8.2.27
- Mysql 8.0.36

When I install the new version of JDownload extension (com_jdownloads_4_0_46_stable.zip), I encounter the following error:
Le tableau : #__jdownloads_files contient un nombre incorrect de champs de données. Cela signifie qu'une mise à jour ne peut probablement pas être effectuée sans erreur.
Mais quel(s) champs? What are the characteristics (parameters and positions of these fields)?

Un second message très bizarre est affiché lorsque j'essaie d'afficher l'administration de JDownloads :
Cette version de jDownloads n'est pas compatible avec Joomla 4.x. S'il vous plaît installer la mise à jour!

Je suis avec Jooomla 5.2.4 ! Pourquoi un message sur la version 4.x ?

J'ai lu la documentation pdf indiquée par Arno (Handling with incorrect jDownloads DB table structures) :
- Table 'jdownloads_file's : Le champ 'Tags' n'existe pas
- Table 'jdownloads-template' : Le champ 'Preview_id' est positionné à la fin

Que dois-je faire ?
Merci d'avance pour votre aide.
Jean-Marie

Jean-Marie,
It seems that you have an update error.  Were you using jD 3.9 series? 
When you updated Joomla to 5.2.4 do you recall which version of jDwnloads was installed?
I will send you a Private Message (PM).  These are secure.

Hello colinM

Thank you for your response.
I was using version 3.9 but I don't know the exact version. since version 4 does not install, I assume that the one currently exists is the one previously installed...

I have made several screenshots but unfortunately I can't attach files to my posts here on this forum:-(
Some examples are:
- JDownloads / Administration / Component : 3.9.8.6
- Content - jDownloads 3.9 / Site / Plugin: 3.9.8.2
There are many other extensions (modules and plugins) in different versions: 3.9.0, 3.9.3, 3.9.6, 3.9.8.2, 3.9.8.3

Bonjour colinM

Merci pour votre réponse.
J'utilisais une version 3.9 mais je ne connais pas exactement la version. etant donné que la version 4 ne s'installe pas, j'imagine que celle qui existe actuellement est celle précédemment installée...

J'ai effectué plusieurs copies d'écran mais malheureusement je ne peux pas joindre des fichiers à mes messages ici sur ce forum :-(
Voici donc quelques exemples :
- JDownloads / Administration / Component : 3.9.8.6
- Content - jDownloads 3.9 / Site / Plugin : 3.9.8.2
Il y a beaucoup d'autres extensions (modules et plugins) en différentes versions : 3.9.0, 3.9.3, 3.9.6, 3.9.8.2, 3.9.8.3
