Please help.
On update to 4.2.5 from 4.2.2, getting SQL error.
As suggested in this thread: checked that Blogs are enabled (yes), and returned to the vB control panel to check status:
It now reports that we are at vb 4.2.5 (partially as the upgrade halts halfway), and it confirms PHP 7.1.12

Thanks very much.

Here's the error message:
