Airtime 2.5.2 RC1 - restoring database from 2.5.1

    I installed Airtime 2.5.2 RC1 and am trying to restore a database from 2.5.1.

    This is a clean install that mimics the older installation (songs in the same directories)

    sudo ./install -foip
    then go to ip address and finish installation.
    clear blank default database
    sudo -u postgres dropdb airtime
    then restore backedup database
    sudo -u postgres psql -f databasename

    then I log in and the stream plays out to a shoutcast server ok,
    but the top section of airtime doesn't show the clock or what's playing

    It would seem like some kind of database issue and it seems related to the installation process / and restoring the database from 2.5.1
    Can anyone suggest a solution?

    I have tried to restore the backed up database without dropping the default database and this keeps the top bar info but none of the songs will load in only the shows.

    @Steven Mathewson 

    There are new database fields in 2.5.2 - though the relevant upgrade should be run automatically; no need to drop the old database before running the installer.

    Could you try running the installation without dropping your old database (hold on to a backup just in case) and see if you still run into the same issue?

    If so, check /var/log/airtime/zendphp.log and /var/log/apache2/error.log for any obvious errors, or just post them up here as attachements.

    Cheers,
    Duncan
