Migration process bug

So I “successfully” completed a migration of my existing SugarCRM system to SuiteCRM using the supplied “upgrade” tool. However whilst testing the new install this afternoon, I have discovered that it is not possible to create new contacts because the upgrade procedure does not create the portal_user_type column in the Contacts table.

I have a feeling there will be more of these “funnies” as I continue to test…

Hi there,

Thanks for highlighting this. We’ll confirm if this is a bug, and if so this will be addressed in future releases.

Thanks,

Will.

Thanks Will. Is it possible the problem was caused because I was already running Advanced OpenSales prior to the migration?

Hi there,

Have you attempted running a Quick Repair & Rebuild in Admin -> Repair and scrolling to the bottom and executing changes? The Quick Repair & Rebuild should identify any differences between the database and vardefs and allow you to execute the fixes.

Thanks,

Will.

Hi Will,

The quick repair and rebuild made no difference at all. With the assistance of Jaydeep, I have had some success at correcting some of the errors I have encountered however: https://suitecrm.com/index.php?option=com_kunena&view=topic&catid=10&id=2188&Itemid=1136

I have found a number of similar problems following the upgrade.
