Topic: address book errors after upgrade

[Phil Marasco]

Hello,
I upgraded to 6.0 beta 3 and when I was checking out all the new toys I saw some things missing. All the addresses my users had stored in the address book (turba?) are now missing. When I try to add a new address I get the following error:
"There was an error adding this object Please contact your administrator."

 I searched the e-smith and the horde forums without any luck. I did find a fix that didn't work. the fix was the following:
log into mysql and type the following-

CREATE TABLE horde.turba_objects (object_id varchar(32) PRIMARY KEY,owner_id  varchar(255),object_name varchar(255),object_alias varchar(32),object_email  varchar(255),object_homeAddress varchar(255),object_workAddress  varchar(255),object_homePhone varchar(25),object_workPhone  varchar(25),object_cellPhone varchar(25),object_fax varchar(25),object_title  varchar(32), object_company  varchar(32),object_notes text);

which I did but the database returned the following:
ERROR 1050: Table 'turba_objects' already exists

Any Ideas?
Thanks
-Phil

Any errors will probably be logged in /var/log/messages; it'd be good to look there and see what you can find.  This should probably be reported to smebugs@mitel.com, though, as it sounds like it may be a bug in the install/upgrade (and I don't recall seeing it previously).

Had you done anything custom to your MySQL installation prior to the upgrade?

I did not make any changes to MySql besides installing php-project a few months ago but it made the changes to its own table, I thought.  I don't even know how to check that. here is the error from /var/log/messages:
[turba] DB Error: no such field: INSERT INTO tu
rba_objects (object_name, object_email, object_title, object_company, object_hom

OK, in that case, do this:

[root@e-smith dan]# cd /home/httpd/html/horde/turba/scripts/drivers/
[root@e-smith dan]#  mysql horde < mysql_upgrade_1.1_to_1.2.sql

...which should fix your problem.  And send a note to smebugs@mitel.com with a description of the problem, the log entry, and the fix.

Again, thank you very much
