Any help or suggestions please...
I did try to reinstate yesterdays backup, but that has failed... so I need to fix the forum first
I also cannot access anything in the ACP as it only tells me to complete the upgrade
 
A missing table is a sign of an incomplete or corrupt backup and restore.

You mention that you have restored from a backup.
How was that backup taken? Using cPanel or some other method?

Why did you restore the backup after uploading the new files and attempting an upgrade?
 
Did you get that error, when you were upgrading your forum, or after you did the resore of the database? And when you say that the restore failed, can you please tell us how it failed? Did you get any error during the restore process? Can you open the backup file and check if said table is present?
 
First I did the upgrade as instructed and it failed with the error as I described.

As I run a dedicated server, I attempted to restore yesterdays backup (full site backup) so I could have my forum running again, while I figure our what is wrong with the upgrade procedure.

The site was originally a VB5 and moved over to XF by TODO10

Failed with what error? That the table is missing?
You can try recreating the table using:
Code:
CREATE TABLE `xf_phrase_map` (
`phrase_map_id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`language_id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL,
`title` varbinary(100) NOT NULL,
`phrase_id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`phrase_map_id`),
UNIQUE KEY `language_id_title` (`language_id`,`title`),
KEY `phrase_id` (`phrase_id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT=14753 DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8

Then try to run the upgrade.

As a third party was involved in setting up/migrating the site though, it may be better to contact them to determine whether it was done correctly.

Thanks for the information and more importantly, taking the time out to help me...
I have contacted the 3rd party and waiting on them to respond, so they can look at it before I do anything, as per your advice...
So a big thanks mate :)
 
I thought I would run database repair and it came up with

Warning : InnoDB: Tablespace is missing for table 'rimbit_xffinal/xf_phrase_map'
Error : Table 'rimbit_xffinal.xf_phrase_map' doesn't exist
status : Operation failed

So I then used your Above query to try and create the table...

the error I got was #1146 - Table 'rimbit_xffinal.xf_phrase_map' doesnt exist

So I tried again, without using the query and just created the table manually with the same result

Not sure what the problem is now :(
 
That looks like database-level corruption, generally because database files have been directly manipulated (you must take and restore backups using MySQL-specific tools, like mysqldump).

There's some discussion of this here:
https://www.percona.com/blog/2013/11/05/how-to-recover-an-orphaned-ibd-file-with-mysql-5-6/
https://www.pythian.com/blog/how-to...able-after-the-tablespace-has-been-removed-2/

Before you take any action like this, be absolutely sure you have working backups. If in doubt, you may want to look into contacting someone well versed in MySQL (and corruption recovery).
 
Can you recommend someone?
I am at my wits end trying to get this fixed... Everyone seems to be washing their hands of the situation and blaming everyone else...
 
Do you have working backups? If you do, you can revert back to your latest and then you can upgrade your forum. The only thing is that you will loose all new contents from the time when the backup was made till now.
 
If this is the only table with an issue, you can try running these queries:
Code:
ALTER TABLE xf_phrase_map DISCARD TABLESPACE;
DROP TABLE xf_phrase_map;
CREATE TABLE xf_phrase_map (
   phrase_map_id INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
   language_id INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL,
   title VARBINARY(100) NOT NULL,
   phrase_id INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL,
   UNIQUE KEY language_id_title (language_id, title),
   KEY phrase_id (phrase_id)
) ENGINE = InnoDB CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_general_ci;

This might solve the issue, though it might show further issues. If it does, then there are deeper underlying issues. Restoring to a working backup may be needed.

(I would urge that you check your backups before taking an action like this as it may cause other/further problems.)

The MySQL log itself will probably have more details about what's going on.

public_html/backup221forumbackup_2016-02-29-000348.sql.gz backup has the "missing table"..which means the table was existing after we migrated your forum.

Then you said yesterday the table was missing and was our fault. Unfortunately (for you) this backup shows the table was there on February 29th so we can't take responsibility of this. It's also on the backup took on March 4rd.

I have been with Hostgator for many years and suddenly all this has happened.
3 days ago, the server locked up and used up 100% of the 1 terra disk space

The only way Hostgator could fix the problem was to delete all the backups, which they did...
So it's Hostgator fault. The backups I showed are the proof.

TODO10 is right and has explained the situation.
Hostgator has been having a lot of issues lately and instead of telling me what the problems where, found it more convenient to put the blame elsewhere.

Further investigation shows that many people are not trusting of HG anymore, since the takeover by EIG

Thanks TODO10 for not yelling at me for my mistake.. and thanks ofr explaining the issue so I could understand!
