Database version 40 - no such column: profile_joined_name

Hi,
I've got a problem to convert an old Signal database version.

Traceback (most recent call last):

Hi @Piermaz38, thanks for reporting this error. Unfortunately it seems that supporting the version of the database that you have will require quite some effort. Are you perhaps able to update the Signal version on the phone so that the database will be migrated to a newer version?
