The release release of DotNetNuke 5.5. marks a serious new version. Part of the changes involves a serious change in the core table structure of DNN. If you are using a version of Events in DNN 5.5, you
must upgrade Events to at least version 5.1.4. This Events version is included in the Upgrade & Install packages of DNN 5.5. Just go to
Host >
Extensions >
Install Available Extension and install Events 5.1.4! Events 5.1.5 is included with DNN version 5.6
Upgrade Events to 5.1.4/5
In an early alpaa stage of DNN 5.5 the Events project team was alerted that the core table structure would generate errors in any Events module. So we spend quiet some time to cope with the difference in table structure. Events 5.1.4/5 will work perfectly in DNN 5.5 earlier versions with a minimum of DNN 5.2.
The problem originates from the fact that Events module is accessing some of the core DNN tables in some parts of the module data layer directly in stead of going through the DNN API. This is a real performance benefit, but exposes a module to changes in the core DNN table structure.
We have solved this for Events, just upgrade to Events version 5.1.4/5 manually if you are upgrading to DNN 5.5. Events 5.1.4 is included in the DNN 5.5 version, go to Host > Extensions > Install Available Extension and select Events 5.1.4 for upgrade! Events 5.1.5 is included in the DNN 5.6 version, go to Host > Extensions > Install Available Extension and select Events 5.1.5 for upgrade!
