Do you still have a backup of your 1.3.8 database to restore/try again?
Following this process: http://www.zen-cart.com/entry.php?3-...d-of-upgrading
This problem should be repeatable on your test/temporary location.
Otherwise, there are specific changes that are expected to have been made/conditions to meet in order to be considered at a specific ZC version.
Some other things: to what version are you considering the "latest" (stated 155, but there are four sub-releases after the initial 155 release and if I remember covering the install sql correctly, one of them affects the 1.3.8 step of the upgrade.)? What process has been used thus far to get to the updated database that you currently have? Where did you obtain the fileset to do the upgrade?

The link you provided appears to be a forum thread on Zen Cart's website discussing a test site for upgrades. It's likely that users are discussing the process of testing upgrades on their Zen Cart websites before implementing them on their live sites.
Using a test site for upgrades is a recommended practice to ensure a smooth transition and minimize the risk of issues or disruptions on the live site. By testing upgrades on a separate site, website owners can evaluate the compatibility of new features, check for any bugs or conflicts, and ensure that everything functions as expected before deploying the changes to their production environment. It's a valuable approach to maintain a stable and reliable online presence while implementing updates and improvements to an e-commerce platform like Zen Cart.
Actually, that link is over 8 years old and should be replaced with https://docs.zen-cart.com/user/upgrading/
The docs are a LOT different than back then.
