I have a problem with my installation. I tried to upgrade but it was refused. It gave me this message:
Upgrading...
Initializing Parameters - Done.
Warning: file(/home/irishcap/public_html/coppermine.html/backup.sql): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /tmp/cpanel_phpengine.1141301302.175482579.1371202013 on line 1245

The database is not working properly and the creation of a database backup file has failed. Please contact the sysadmin for further assistance. Include this message for reference.
The initial installation has not been modified.
My gallery:
http://www.irishcaper.net/coppermine.html/
My gallery is not working properly right now. This is the message I get:
While executing query "UPDATE cpg_pictures SET randpos = ROUND(RAND()*0) WHERE 1" on 0
mySQL error: Unknown column 'randpos' in 'field list'
I'm wondering how to fix this. If I uninstall and reinstall will I lose all my pictures?
Thank you for your time,
irishcaper
Don't post individual support requests on a sticky thread. Your issue is caused entirely by using fantastico or some other installer to update. Don't. Use the method described in the documentation.
