URL to your eFiction: http://www.sailormoonfiction.com/revolution/index.php
Version of eFiction: 3.3.1
Have you bridged eFiction, if so with what?: Nope
Version of PHP: 5.2.10
Version of MySQL: 5.0.81-community-log
Have you searched for your problem: yes, but still confused  πŸ˜›
If so, what terms did you try: I tried posting parts of the error code (see below) but nothing seemed to work for me
Do you have a test account for us? No
State the nature of your problem: Upgrading from 3.3.1 to 3.5.1. All files uploaded and went to my site in the browser and was hit with :

A fatal MySQL error was encountered.
Query: SELECT author.penname as penname, co.uid FROM fanfiction_coauthors AS co LEFT JOIN fanfiction_authors as author ON co.uid = author.uid WHERE co.sid = '119'
Error: (1146) Table 'sailormo_fiction.fanfiction_coauthors' doesn't exist

I didn't get a chance to run any update/upgrade script as it jumped straight to the error without giving me any other option. I tried running the update.php but that did nothing.It's been a while since I had a tinker on my site so any help would be greatly appreciated πŸ™‚

It says the table fanfiction_coauthors doesn't exist. Try creating it manually and then running the update. The structure of it can be found in install/install.php.

HI, I created the table manually and then got an error saying the table already existed !!! So I commented out the create coauthors section in the update file and it now works !!

Just in case this helps someone else  πŸ˜†

Many thanks !
