Joomla! version: 2.5.11

Host: Reseller Zoom

Description of my issue:
I am working in a live site that was upgraded from Joomla 1.5 to 2.5 using JUpgrade. I was able to install Akeeba backup, and restored the backup of JUpgrade version to live domain. Now when I try to install Admin Tools, I'm getting an error, and I can't seem to find a similar post using Akeeba forum or Google search. Here are the errors I get after trying to install:

JInstaller: :Install: Error SQL DB function failed with error number 1146
Table 'shcs_jo2511.j25_admintools_redirects' doesn't exist SQL=ALTER TABLE `j25_admintools_redirects` ADD COLUMN `keepurlparams` tinyint(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT '1' AFTER `published`;
SQL =

ALTER TABLE `#__admintools_redirects` ADD COLUMN `keepurlparams` tinyint(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT '1' AFTER `published`;

Component Update: SQL error file DB function failed with error number 1146
Table 'shcs_jo2511.j25_admintools_redirects' doesn't exist SQL=ALTER TABLE `j25_admintools_redirects` ADD COLUMN `keepurlparams` tinyint(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT '1' AFTER `published`;
SQL =

ALTER TABLE `#__admintools_redirects` ADD COLUMN `keepurlparams` tinyint(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT '1' AFTER `published`;

I have looked in phpMyAdmin, and I notice that in my database I have three difference prefixes: j25-, jos- and jupgrade-, if that helps at all.

Please advise what to do in order to install Admin Tools.

Thanks, Rob

You will have to ask the jUpgrade guys for support. It seems that they kept the #__extension and #__schemas records for our components but copied neither the files nor the database tables of the extensions. As a result Joomla! is trying to upgrade an inexistent extension and throws errors. Please note that the error message comes from Joomla!'s code and is the result of what seems like a bug in jUpgrade. Since none of our PHP code was involved in this issue I cannot provide assistance.
