    Hello Seyi,


    I've tried to update the AwoCoupon Pro from 2.5.9.5 to 3.5.6.4, and there are error msgs as follow:

    Warning
    Duplicate column name 'coupon_value_def'


    Error

    Error installing component


    The environment: Joomla 3.7.5 and VM 3.2.6.  (I also tried on Joomla 3.8.12 and VM3.4.0.9935)
    I tried to install v3.5.5.3 and v3.5.6.2, and it shows the same error msgs.


    Do you know what causes the issue?

    Thank you.

    The installer is determining your version to be AwoCoupon Free, I think.  In your database, do you have the table:

    #__awocoupon_vm

    If so, this is the issue.  If you rename or delete that table it should work.

    Hello Seyi,


    After I delete #_awocoupon_vm table and try to update AwoCoupon again, there still error msgs

    Not sure, think you need to try and manually update it.  Open the zip file copy:

    admin/ > /administrator/components/com_awocoupon/
    language/admin/ > /administrator/langage/
    language/site/ > /language/
    media/ > /media/com_awocoupon/
    site/ > /components/com_awocoupon/
    awocoupon_j3.xml > /administrator/components/com_awocoupon/
    install.awocoupon.php > /administrator/components/com_awocoupon/

    Then load awocoupon dashboard.  It should automatically update the db from that screen.  That should do it.

    And you can delete all the #__awocoupon_vm tables, that is for the free version.

    Hello Seyi,


    I have deleted all #_awocoupon_vm tables in the database, and manually updated AwoCoupon followed your instruction.

    But it looks like it didn't automatically update the database as expected.
    Now I can see the Awocoupon user interface, and configuration, installation check, subscription, about panel are work as it should.

    However, the dashboard, coupon... etc panels are showing loading icon forever.

    I checked the consol panel and there's 500 error msg:

    GET /administrator/index.php?option=com_awocoupon&tmpl=component&no_html=1&ajax=yes&type=admin&view=dashboard&urlx=%2Fadministrator%2Findex.php%3Foption%3Dcom_awocoupon%23%2Fawocoupon%2F&cache=23180849 500


    In the meantime, I also update the AwoReward and it runs perfectly.  
    AwoReward updated successfully, and it automatically updated the database when I go to rules panel.


    Thank you for your kindly support.

    I download the latest AwoCoupon 3.5.6.5 and try to install again, the error msg:
    ×

    Warning

    Table '#__store_st1.#__awocoupon_vm' doesn't exist
    ×

    Error

    Error installing component

    which #_awocoupon_vm should be for free version but appear in warning msg, is this right?


    p.s. Before try to install this one, I have manually installed the AwoCoupon  3.5.6.4 first.

    Thank you, Seyi! You're amazing.

    Could you tell me the solution progress? I'll need to that again on the live site.

    In awocoupon_j3.xml, change the version to what you are upgrading from, 2.5.9.5, then refresh the dashboard, AwoCoupon should then run the mysql queries.  Then change awocoupon_j3.xml version back to 3.5.6.4.
    Regards
