Help upgrading database from version 13

Post by moisesber »

Hello,

I have a database that I saved and did not touch it for a year. I tried installing the latest version and just see if it would work but I had no luck. It complained about a missing "CURRENCYFORMATS_V1" table. I saw that it had created different versions of the database during the attempt to upgrade it. So I tried downgrading the version of the program to see if I could find anything that would open it. I reached my limit when I found the breach between one version that says "version 13 does not work with this MMEX version" (which is MMEX version 1.5.21) and the next one that says "error trying to upgrade the database to version 15 (which is MMEX version 1.6.0). I am not sure what to do from this point so I am here trying to check if anyone has ideas.

Environment information:

Code: Select all

Distributor ID:	Pop
Description:	Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS

If you want, you can send the .mmb to mmexregister@gmail.com and I will take a look at it.
Of course, the confidentiality of the data is guaranteed.

Thanks for the offer but, at this point, unfortunately, that would not work for me.
Can you tell me what would be the things you would be looking for? Any tooling that I could use?
