Shouldn’t a database change require the upgrade script to happen?

The script never ran, so in theory, the database should have stayed the same.

Status quo: Repeated the whole “delete folder, replace with back-up” routine and got at least my background pic back.

Decision: Keep the back-up in loving memory of old times and keep on whining about not having a blog to bitch about my shredded blog.

So long.

Oh, you’re making sense, I think. ??

WordPress is located in a folder “(root/)blog/” and I copied the whole blog folder. So to say: I emptied the whole folder, the uploaded the back-up. And you guess it … error.

Am I right that the database tables were not changed, since the upgrade does not start?
That’s the only thing I haven’t done yet, replacing the database with the back-up as I assume they stayed the same.

First off, thank you.
The problem, though: What you described is what I did ??
I deleted those files mentioned in the paragraph “Delete these Files and Folders”, just kept those mentioned in the “DO NOT DELETE these foldes and files” paragraph.

I also did quite the opposite – deleted all new files of the 2.1 update, then uploaded my back-up files – and still I’m confronted with that error.

As I mentioned, the error occurs when I try to run upgrade.php.
