upgrade fail: Duplicate key name 'mesid' was created by vitohuang
i have a old fireboard 1.04 forum and upgrading to kunena 1.5. i read the documentation on kunena wiki about how to upgrade it. overall i did the following.
download fbconverter to convert my fireboard 1.04 forum's config from file to database.
then uninstall fireboard.
finally install fresh copy of kunena 1.5.

however there are some error in the last step, during the installation i got the following error(see the attached image)

despite the errors,the forum still seems to be working, but with message:

Hello,

Look in your table jos_fb_attachments and check if you two field nammed mesid, if it's the case remove one of them.

Some tables aren't populated in the database, so can you list all the tables begining by js_fb_* ?
I don't provide support by PM, because this can be useful for someone else.

Hi,

Your problem is very simple: You are running the installer while Joomla is in debug mode. That does not work, as certain queries that are allowed to fail (we check them in our code) are hard stopped by Joomla debug.

For your install to work, please turn off debug in Joomla and install Kunena. Once installed you can go back and re-enable debug in Joomla.

Hope this helps!

Disabling debug in Joomla helps. This issue with debug has been fixed for K1.6.
