Upgrade from 4.2.9 to 4.3.5 - Database Error
July 18, 2013, 03:54:16 pm
I have been trying to upgrade a Drupal 6 implementation of CiviCRM from 4.2.9 to 4.3.5 and am getting an error stating that civicrm_contribution_type cannot be renamed to civicrm_financial_type because that table already exists. Has anyone else had this problem and if so what is the fix?

Cheers

Yes I have seen it. Drop civicrm_financial_type and it should work. Of course test this on a dev site first.
