Update from Perch 2 to Runway did not run

I am trying to upgrade to runway. I was expecting the usual upgrade successful message when I logged in to the admin area. When I logged in there was no message although I can see the runway menu in the admin area.

On the front end of the site I have a failed to open stream errors.

Base table or view not found: 1146 Table 'poppdb.perch2_page_routes' doesn't exist 

Diagnostics report HEALTH CHECK

Downloaded Runway 2.8.5 and that upgraded fine?

I see in the diagnostics that this version is marked as "You are running a pre-release version of Perch Runway" I take it that's okay.

That's just because the version is checked when you log in. If you log out and back in that message will change.

Did you move from Perch 2.8.4 directly to Runway 2.8.4? If so, the versions are the same so the update doesn't run.

Yes Drew, yes I did move from Perch 2.8.4 over to 2.8.4 Runway. I was convinced I had messed up and spent ages fault finding?

A note in the docs might help others. Also in the docs https://docs.grabaperch.com/runway/upgrading/ Upgrading to Perch Runway: The Steps, maybe add in to copy across the templates/pages/errors folder

Better to fix in the software, really, but it's only just coming to light.
