Error

Any from migration process trying to migrate to 7.51 and up from previous AIO 7.22 and before.

Cause

Just take this because between 6.x and 7.x (no up than7.30) structure changed

In 7.30 there are a new structure changes in the program and tables, so it is good to migrate to 7.30 from old versions.

    5. Apply patch 7.49
    6. Migrate to 7.51 or 7.52 or 7.53 directly, it supposes last version then go right away to 7.53
