Hi Mark,

If you are using a products file from a previous version, then you need 
to add "option_type" as one of your fields. Also, check to see if you 
are using the options table or the new variants table for your options. 
Then check in the etc/after.cfg and make sure the correct table is 
indicated in this entry:

Replace ProductFiles
ProductFiles   products variants
