Upgrade Error Messages (7.x-1.0-rc2 -> 7.x-1.0-rc3)

I did not get the same error but when I updated using Drush I got a couple of warnings and then multiple success messages:

The following updates are pending:

Finished performing updates.

I also found this entry repeatedly in my Watchdog log after the update when visiting my-site.com/faq-page:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in tablefield_field_formatter_view() (line 345 of /../sites/all/modules/tablefield/tablefield.module).

I have
faq module
Update #7002
Failed: FieldException: Attempt to create field name field_detailed_question which already exists and is active. in field_create_field() (line 85 of /home/drupal7b/public_html/modules/field/field.crud.inc).

Added this issue to known issues to release notes https://www.drupal.org/node/2371961

I have exactly the same issue than AlexanderPop (#3).

Ok, to solve it I followed these steps:

• Make backup of the database.
• In the table 'field_config', delete the record with field_name: 'field_detailed_question'.
• Delete the table 'field_data_field_detailed_question'.
• Delete the table 'field_revision_field_detailed_question'.

Then I ran update.php without issues this time. I hope it helps somebody.

For OP error message 1 -- The problem appears to be that $node->detailed_question does not exist for some faq nodes after a node_load(). My solution was to just wrap this in an isset() with a ternary operator.

For OP error message 2 -- The problem is that you cannot call filter_formats() inside array_keys(), and you cannot call array_keys() inside reset, you must use intermediary variables.

For comments #3 and #5, it is possible that you're hitting those issues because you had to run the updates twice? Anyway, those issues seem totally unrelated to the issues from the OP.

Thank you for this patch. I was able to update my dev site with the FAQ module and didn't receive errors like I did on my last attempt.

thanks, commited

I can't imagine why, but even after the commit, this isn't working for me. I have checked the faq.install and the patch has been applied. I have cleared caches, run update.php, checked the uploaded version of the file on the server... everything.

The following updates returned messages

faq module

Update #7002
Failed: FieldException: Attempt to create field name <em class="placeholder">field_detailed_question</em> which already exists and is active. in field_create_field() (line 85 of /var/www/vhosts/dev.MYSITE.gov/modules/field/field.crud.inc).

Should I go into the database and manually make the changes? This is causing errors all over my sites which use this module.

Same for me, it broke my site.

Thanks, Eketol, that did the trick!

#5 +1

Moving to correct status.
