Hi, same issue I had with the other site to which you helped, thank you.
I try to install launcher and or full package and simply gets stuck at installation stage. Doesn't get past database optimisation. I see these attempts have now broken something on site relating to easyblog.

Could you help troubleshoot please.
Thank you!
I guess this is server - Joomla related. Check these first and dl a fresh EasyBlog package too.

Have you done anything with your htaccess files and path/cache/sessions changes?

It seems like missing the `canonical` column from this table #__easyblog_meta so caused this installation issue.

And I can replicate this issue if upgrade this from 5.0 version to 6.x locally.

I will log this issue into the issue tracker.

For now, I already helped you execute the following SQL query from your site to create this `canonical column` under this #__easyblog_meta table, the installation works fine now.


// Remember replace #__ to your current table prefix before execute it
ALTER TABLE `#__easyblog_meta` ADD `canonical` TEXT NOT NULL AFTER `description`;


Can you give it a check and see if everything works fine now after upgrading to Easyblog 6.x the latest version?
