Sentinel upgrade from 2.5.01 to 2.5.03 errors

Hi all!

I've been trying to upgrade my Sentinel installation from 2.5.01 to 2.5.03 (I managed to get the upgrade to run with no known issues from 2.4.2pl5 to 2.5.01) but I'm getting the following errors:
-Add field nuke_nsnst_countries failed
-Alter nuke_nsnst_ip2country failed
-Insert to nuke_nsnst_config failed
-Insert to nuke_nsnst_config failed

Can anyone tell what I might be doing wrong?

Also, is there any way to test the Sentinel install to make sure it's working (without getting myself banned)? I've never tested it...

Thanks!

Have you used phpMyAdmin and actually looked at the tables to see if the changes are already applied? That's usually what that error means.

Raven!
Thank you for replying.

Nope, not checked the tables yet. Embarassed

What would I be looking for?
I mean, what's being "added", "altered", and "inserted" into what tables?

DOH!
Ok, got the db open in myPHPAdmin and the up2501-2502.php open in ConTEXT and can see what should be added, altered and inserted.
It looks like evrything IS as it should be but for the two "inserts" into the nsnst_config table; the installer should have inserted "version check" and "version newest", but I don't find these doing a browse of the table. I have "per page", "date format", "send notice" and "version number" in the nuke_nsnst_config table.

Sorry, getting tired...
Wrong table; but I still don't see version check or version newest in the nuke_nsnst_config table.
Hmm...

Ok, time for bed I think...
I'm such an airhead. Blonde Moment

Raven you are completely correct; the errors are because the changes have already been made.

Now... not that I'll do this tonight (as tired as I am, that WOULD be stupidity beyond belief) but, is there a way to test Sentinel without banning myself?
