Hello,

I tired to upgrading from V.1.4.1 to V. 1.4.2 but i couldn't and got next error log and screenshot.


2025-05-02 19:54:07 - Unknown Error: AbanteCart core v.1.4.1 SQL-ERROR: "array (
'error_text' => 'Can\'t DROP INDEX `fuw2_lang_definition_idx`; check that it exists',
'errno' => 1091,
)" in /core/lib/package_manager.php on line 832


What shall I do in my case?

perplexed:
I am also working through problems with upgrade (1.4.2), permissions, as well as ftp unable to log on etc. Abantecart needs to create a better system for upgrading through hosting sites (A2webhosting) if I find anything substantial I will post again....in the mean-time I am also stuck in the ditch....

this index must be presents in your language_definition table.
See 1.4.1 install.sql script, line 983 https://github.com/abantecart/abantecart-src/blob/1.4.1/public_html/install/abantecart_database.sql#L983

To solve just create it manually via phpMyAdmin and run upgrade again

You see all these permissions "issues" because of security reason. AbanteCart thinks how to forbid injections from other hosting providers accounts and other worms.
If we made easy upgrade this mean weak defense. What do you prefer, easy upgrade or weak defense?
Please provide how do you see upgrade process. We'll try to make it better

You may have the same issue I had.

The webserver wouldn't serve index.php as the default index file, so any call to javascript would return 404, which was the wrong file type since it was expecting javascript, and it would get blocked.

The solution was go to the .htaccess file in the root folder of your AbanteCart installation and add this line:
DirectoryIndex index.php
