Unable to Upgrade from CiviCRM 4.6.16 to 4.7 (Wordpress)

Question

When attempting to upgrade from CiviCRM 4.6.16 to any of the 4.7 releases, I receive the following error message:

Error: Migrate "on behalf of" information to module_data

Debug info says: "Unknown column 'for_organization' in 'field_list'

This is the first time I've encountered any issues during the upgrade process. I have been using CiviCRM since version 4.4.

Screenshot is below. Thank you for your help! Darron

I'm not seeing you received any help for this. I'm also struggling with the upgrade process. I did find some help elsewhere. Although it wasn't sufficient - perhaps it would help you. It is possible you might have Drupal DB updates to execute before hand. I'm not using drush - but I did find some updates were needed when I checked the status report. forum.civicrm.org/index.php?topic=37002.0 — Harold Shinsato, Commented Sep 5, 2016 at 23:28

Problem is old field was lost in the upgrade. Try updating this file:

CRM/Upgrade/Incremental/php/FourSeven.php

with code at this GIT pull request.

This post here explains it in more detail.
