    That table won't exist after you finish an upgrade to 5.2.6. It isn't a table used in 5.X. When you did your test upgrade did you delete all vBulletin 4 files first?

      My step, upload vb5.2.6 file, overwrite vb4 file (modify core --- includes - config), follow the prompt steps to upgrade. Prompt to upgrade vb4,“Upgrading to vBulletin 5 will remove any currently installed products as they are not compatible with 5.2.6.” select "yes", where there is a tutorial posts?

      No VB4 files are deleted.

        You should delete all vB4 files.

          First step in both the 5.x manual and the vb5readme.html file that ships with the product say to delete the files from older versions of vBulletin first.
