Logins fail after updating to 1.6.03

I see that you tried the installer stub and the problem persists.

I'm really sorry ... I've never seen a failure like this.

I've even tried to simulate your situation. I set up Ubuntu 16.04, installed CPG 1.5.32, used the stub to upgrade it and all works as expected.

would I be possible for you to PM me with a link to somewhere I can download a backup of your site and database? I will try and replicate your issue on a local setup.

I've been able to determine that there is a problem with your database. Is there a way you can send me a dump of your _user table?

[ron4mac]

This problem has been resolved to an issue with database user permissions. The update could not fully complete because the database user was not allowed to ALTER tables.

Excellent news. It is never easy with self hosted solutions

I ran into that issue some time ago with one of my installations... Wasn't obvious at all.
Would be nice if the update script had some awareness of errors - and could flag something like a security error rather than report 'already done'...
Not sure if that is the only error to capture - but it is a challenging issue to find.

Nice work chasing it down.
