Upgrade to 2.71 failed – db errors.

    I deleted an old version of WP (don’t know which version) of WP and uploaded 2.71 files. I upgraded the wp-config.php file. Upon linking to ../blog/wp-admin/install.php I get a ‘Information Needed” screen. I added a title and an email address as requested and then get a huge page of errors. See the errors at:
    [link deleted]
    Can someone tell me what is wrong and what can be done to fix the problem?

    Is the database so old that 2.71 cannot read it?

    Where does one find someone who can fix the database?

    Thanks

    Hi,
    I killed your link as it gave away too much info.
    Give a link with just the errors at the top for others to see – a small sample is enough – or just post a small sample here.

    I would try a fresh install in a new database – then import your .sql dump into that.
