Upgrade to 2.7.1 deletes some menu items was created by MGS Creativa

Hi, after I upgraded to 2.7.1 fron 2.7.0 I realized that some joomla! menu items were missing, a.k.a. deleted!

Is that a normal behaviour?

I have used the joomla upgrade view and checked k2 to get the upgrade, and after that, I gor my menu items deleted. Also joomla table _extensions field extension_id lost the primary attribute and the AUTO_INCREMENT too...

Please advise!

Thanks!

Hello,

It is not normal behaviour.
Are the menu items in the database or are they completely delete?
What menu items where they?

Hi! the menu items got completely deleted!

Should I send you a PM with access credentials for you to check?

PS: How should I contact you privately?

Hi! found a workaround!

On a temp, fresh j 3.6.2 site I have loaded all K2 tables, then installed the component, so if there's any db upgrade. it was done. After that, exported the K2 tables and reloaded them on my production site. As the component files where already on site, I haven't copy any files, then, I have edited manifest_cache field of the component in the extensions table entry to reflect the current K2 version to 2.7.1 and all done.

Which version did you have prior to 2.7.1?
Was it by any chance a DEV version of 2.7.0?

Hi Krikor! I don't use dev version on my production sites. The version I had was 2.7.0 upgraded from previous version through joomla update component

There are no significant db changes from 2.7.0 to .1 or .2, but I will look through the commits for all additions/ deletions.

You can,

Perform a semi-manual update.
Install Akeeba backup and perform a full-site and db backup.
Backup the menu table.
Install the newest version.
Reinstate the old menu table which is complete on top of the new menu table.

Great! the table backup thing is the real deal!

I should add the extensions table to the backup/restore, because sometimes it messes with that table too. Then edit the K2 Component entry to change version from 2.7.x to 2.7.2 or similar.

You can simply reinstall the DEV version.
