Hi douglasroos and welcome to the Mattermost forums!

This sounds like a not working database migration.
Can you please disable the plugin in your system console, then enable debug logging and re-enable the plugin again? You should then (hopefully) see some additional loglines that might help us diagnose this issue further.

Also, if possible, please login to your PostgreSQL console, connect to your database and run the commands and post the outputs, please:

\dt focalboard*
select * from focalboard_schema_migrations;

Thanks! Just uninstalled and reinstalled the boards plugin and started working again

The same after update to 7.8

This plugin failed to start. cannot activate plugin: error initializing the DB: driver: postgres, message: failed to execute migration, command: executing_query, originalError: pq: could not create unique index "unique_user_category_board", query: DO $$ BEGIN IF NOT EXISTS ( SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLE_CONSTRAINTS WHERE constraint_schema = 'public' AND constraint_name = 'unique_user_category_board' AND constraint_type = 'UNIQUE' AND table_name = 'focalboard_category_boards' ) THEN ALTER TABLE public.focalboard_category_boards ADD CONSTRAINT unique_user_category_board UNIQUE(user_id, board_id); END IF; END; $$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;
