I cannot find the Home -> System tools page on doliondemand.fr - is that expected ? It is supposed to be aversion 20.0

How do I create my own posts? I have an installation issue, but there does not seem to be a button that I can see to post. What am I doing wrong? I verified my email address.

once you have been around for some time and you no longer look like a spammer which we have SUFFERED from, then that button will appear

what is your installation issue, which dolibarr version, which platform, …

21.0.0. Running on an Ubuntu 22.04.4 (Digital Ocean VPS). I am discovering that my database in mysql is missing all sorts of columns from various table. The issue is that I don’t know what I don’t know (i.e., I don’t really know what I am missing until I find out by using a module). This code have something to do with the fact that the database collation I was using was wrong when I installed Dolibarr originally using 20.0.4. Before upgrading, I fixed the collation error in the conf.php file. I thought the upgrade would fix the database columns, but it does not seem to have. I, unfortunately, have almost zero experience using Linux. I have managed to install Traccar and this app just using ChatGPT, but it has obviously made things harder.

Sorry. I think I didn’t mention you in the reply I just made. I wanted to make sure you saw it. Thanks for your help sir.

Do you have experience with windows? - Because then you might want to run dolibarr inside docker on windows.

You might not have those database columns if the module was not enabled on the previous installation, but it is hard to guess because I don’t know which columns are missing.
