Good morning.
Upgrading from 3.8.10 / 3.8.11 to 4.2.5 the following statement appears.
Step 7 - Upgrade Aborted : Unable to find Type : vBForum_IPAddress
(see also attached image)
The upgrade does continue. Is this something I can safely ignore?

You cannot ignore it, its required, and that step needs to run.
The previous step 6 should have added it, try re-running the 4.2.5 Beta 2 steps.

Hi again Paul. Thanks for your time here.
I've run multiple times now and the same error happens at the same point. To confirm, I'm upgrading a vanilla 3.8.10 database via command line using fresh 4.2.5 files from vBulletin.com.
I can duplicate the error when upgrading a vanilla 3.8.11 database, again with fresh 4,2,5 files from vBulletin.com.
Apache/2.4.18 (Ubuntu)
MySQL 5.7.18-0ubuntu0.16.04.1
PHP 7.0.18-0ubuntu0.16.04.1

Paul. Remember the issue we had before (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=325075) with 3.8.11 ?
Well adding this to 4.2.5 config.php has resolved the upgrade issue.
ini_set('memory_limit', '-1');
Very :confused:
So we are good to go. Thanks again for your time here.

This is back to being a problem again. When updating a database without any albums in the file system, upgrade completes without error. However, when upgrading a database with albums in the file system, the above error occurs.
Any advice appreciated.
