@er1n @squirrel ehmmm so let's see

the migration (says that it) failed

but the columns are in the schema... the database itself or the db/schema.rb?

what does uhhhh rails db:migrate:status show?

@er1n @squirrel @bea I... can't send to @squirrel directly? Anyway, what error are you getting when you try the migration? (And bonus if you know: what was the error *the first time*, not just the most recent time?)

@bea @er1n @squirrel Out of curiosity if you don't mind, what was the issue / what fixed it? (I wrote that migration, would like to know if there's anything I can do to avoid that happening in the future.)

@aschmitz @bea @er1n for some reason the migration just hadn't worked originally and we have no idea why, all other migrations before and after that worked fine

the show_reblogs column on follow_requests was apparently missing, and we were trying to manually add it to the wrong db

manually adding them to the right db (as discovered by @noelle) solved the problem eventually

we don't know why the columns weren't there in the first place but all other migrations worked

@noelle @er1n @bea @aschmitz trying to migrate down that specific migration returned error that columns didn't exist, trying to migrate up returned nothing
