I'm trying to upgrade an Umbraco 7.1 installation to 7.6.1 (direct upgrade), however - the installer fails due to missing columns in various tables. I made a fresh 7.6.1 install and compared the two databases and found that the upgrade fails to add the following:
Table UmbracoPropertyTypeGroup:
column uniqueID, type: uniqueIdentifier, not null
Table UmbracoRelationType:
column typeUniqueId, type: uniqueIdentifier, not null
Fixed the steps manually, now I'm getting this error:
The database failed to upgrade. ERROR: The database configuration failed with the following message: The index 'IX_umbracoNodeUniqueID' is dependent on column 'uniqueID'. ALTER TABLE ALTER COLUMN uniqueID failed because one or more objects access this column.
How do I fix this? Anyone else having this kind of problem?
Yes, I always consult the docs before upgrading, and doing it manually.
(erase /bin, /config, /umbraco, /umbraco_client, copy new files, merge web.config)
Having the same problem. Trying to upgrade a 7.1.9 install to 7.6.2 because I was getting the horrific GetMedia returning blank data preventing me from from using that version. Now I'm getting this annoying error and I need the website up and running by tomorrow morning. The "joys" of upgrading Umbraco. Sigh.

Hi Simon,
Have you followed the upgrade path process? See the following articles which may assist you:
https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/getting-started/setup/upgrading/version-specific
https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/getting-started/setup/upgrading/general
https://umbraco.com/blog/how-to-diagnose-umbraco-upgrade-problems/
I would also suggest updating Manually rather than using NuGet (which is a pain in the backside sometimes).
Regards
Craig

Umbraco HQ is looking into the issue.
I'm having the same issue after following the upgrade path. Did you get it resolved?
EDIT: Sorry, just found it on the Issue tracker right after posting - http://issues.umbraco.org/issue/U4-9927
All good :)No, I'm considering making another attempt at upgrading later this week or in the beginning of the next
