Here's a new one. 'Unkown Joomla'

zentoolsIf you use Zentools please post a review at the Joomla! Extensions Directory.

I suddenly started getting a lot of errors in newlifestyle, as exemplified by changes not being reflected on the front end, inability to compile CSS from LESS, modules not appearing... finally Joomla update reported unkown Joomla. When trying to update it, I got
Unknown column 'extra_query' in 'field list' SQL=SELECT DISTINCT update_site_id, type, location, last_check_timestamp, extra_query FROM l5f8r_update_sites WHERE enabled = 1

I've backed up where I am, but wondering what advice you have while i download the (corrupted?) backup.

EDIT

after backing up, i tried installing a fresh copy of Joomla. Now getting:
Duplicate column name 'content_history_options' SQL=/* Core 3.2 schema updates */ ALTER TABLE `l5f8r_content_types` ADD COLUMN `content_history_options` VARCHAR(5120) NOT NULL COMMENT 'JSON string for com_contenthistory options';

RESOLVED

the fix was easy
To fix this issues, go to Extension Manager -> Database then click the fix button. This will attempt to fix any database issues caused by changes in the database structure that occurred between versions.

2) template style is 'home' with tabs module present

3) and the correct template style is assigned to the menu item

I'm not sure we will be able to address these glitches in the forum

Can you open a ticket for the site

Thanks
