It could be that I had an old SQLite DB in cache that I copied. I was trying to simulate a migration from 7.5.3 to 7.6 for users upgrading, rather than a clean install. _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
