Description

Hi there,

I have problems with issues list in 1.0.0.
I have a working installation of 0.9.5 (about 15 projects, some of them with svn integration, running on port 3000) and wanted to run a test stage for 1.0.0.

The machine is a Ubuntu 10.04 64bit server.
Ruby version 1.8.7 (x86_64-linux)
RubyGems version 1.3.6
Rack version 1.0
Rails version 2.3.5
Active Record version 2.3.5
Active Resource version 2.3.5
Action Mailer version 2.3.5
Active Support version 2.3.5
MySQL Server version 5.1.41

Here's what I did.

I downloaded 1.0.0 and unpacked it to '/srv/rails/redmine-1.0.0' (our working Redmine is under '/srv/rails/redmine-0.9.5'), duplicated the db (from 'redmine' to 'redmine-stage'), copied database.yml and email.yml, edited database.yml to point to the duplicated db and copied the 'files' folder.

After that I ran (in 1.0.0):

rake generate_session_store
rake tmp:cache:clear
rake tmp:sessions:clear

Finally I started the server with:

ruby script/server webrick -e production -p 3001

Calling the 'issues' tab for any project gives me an 500-error, production.log says:

I guess you're missing rake db:migrate, no?

Actions #2

Updated by Sascha Drews over 14 years ago

Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot to mention that - of course I also ran rake db:migrate.
I did everything that is stated in RedmineUpgrade, except for the plugins instructions, since I have none installed.

Running ruby script/about tells me:
Database schema version 20100705164950

Hope this helps.

If you had the subtasks plugin installed: it's not compatible with 1.0.0, and especially not the data format. I think there was a way to revert the migrations from a plugin (something like RAILS_ENV=production rake db:migrate:plugins plugin_name version=0 or similar), if you want an upgrade-path without loss of data, contact the author of the plugin.

I gave the suggestions from Stepan a try, although I'm not on PgSql but MySql and I had no errors while migrating.

I think your way small wrong. Need drop columns if (and only if) db:migrate tell you about any of column alredy exists in table issues.

Try:
1) drop my stage-db an recreate it from dump
2) run rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=production
3) see error messages like:

-- add_column(:issues, :parent_id, :integer, {:default=>nil})
rake aborted!
An error has occurred, this and all later migrations canceled:

PGError: ERROR:  column "parent_id" of relation "issues" already exists
: ALTER TABLE "issues" ADD COLUMN "parent_id" integer

4) if you see error message alredy exists drop column, and try db:migrate (goto 2)

your db:migrate to short:

==  ChangeChangesPathLengthLimit: migrating ===================================
-- change_column(:changes, :path, :text, {:null=>false})
   -> 0.3050s
-- change_column(:changes, :from_path, :text)
   -> 0.4371s
==  ChangeChangesPathLengthLimit: migrated (0.7426s) ==========================

if you drop any column it can be added after run rake db:migrate.
My log db:migrate after drop (conflicted columns in my DB) `parent_id`, `lft` and `rgt` on table `issues`:

==  AddIssuesNestedSetsColumns: migrating =====================================
-- add_column(:issues, :parent_id, :integer, {:default=>nil})
   -> 0.0203s
-- add_column(:issues, :root_id, :integer, {:default=>nil})
   -> 0.0019s
-- add_column(:issues, :lft, :integer, {:default=>nil})
   -> 0.0018s
-- add_column(:issues, :rgt, :integer, {:default=>nil})
   -> 0.0018s
==  AddIssuesNestedSetsColumns: migrated (0.1846s) ============================

==  AddIndexOnIssuesNestedSet: migrating ======================================
-- add_index(:issues, [:root_id, :lft, :rgt])
   -> 0.0058s
==  AddIndexOnIssuesNestedSet: migrated (0.0060s) =============================

==  ChangeChangesPathLengthLimit: migrating ===================================
-- change_column(:changes, :path, :text, {:null=>false})
   -> 0.2177s
-- change_column(:changes, :from_path, :text)
   -> 0.2101s
==  ChangeChangesPathLengthLimit: migrated (0.4283s) ==========================

`parent_id`, `lft` and `rgt` restored.

Drop only conflicted (exists) columns!

Good news everyone, I could solve the problem.

After reading Felix' comment I took another close look at my db.

I saw that I have a lot of records in my issues table that don't have the columns root_id, lft, rgt filled.

id ... parent_id root_id lft rgt
562 ... NULL 562 1 2
563 ... NULL 563 1 2
564 ... NULL 564 1 2
565 ... NULL NULL NULL NULL
566 ... NULL NULL NULL NULL
567 ... NULL NULL NULL NULL

So I gave this simple sql statement a chance:

update issues set parent_id = NULL, root_id = id, lft = 1, rgt = 2;

I can run that on all records without any conditions since I had no subtasks before so I had not to worry about damaging existing relations.

And well, after that I can see my issues lists in all of my projects.

I think, some kind of update like I did should be included in the migration scripts...

Thanks Felix for pointing me in the right direction :-)

Ok, closing this as it seems to have been a glitch in you upgrade process.

I got a same problem.
Migrating from 0.9.4 to 1.0.1(both are BitNami Redmine Stack).

Badly, I have no parent_id, root_id, lft, rgh in my issues table.
So Sascha's workaround doesn't help me.

By the way, #6032 and #6193 reported the same problem.
I think Redmine 1.0 has the migrating bug.

Does anyone have suggestions?

Make sure you have migrated correctly: If you have no parent_id, root_id, lft and rgt columns in your schema, the migration wasn't successful.

In my case the cause was that I have used settings file from older version.
