I am building an upgrade path from our legacy moodle 1.9 instances to moodle 2.4. My upgrade system works well when I upgrade from 1.9 to 2.2 using the CLI systems, but I get a problem that Google has no answer for when I try to then leap-frog from 2.2 to 2.4.

Here is the error:

Debug info: Out of range value for column 'sortorder' at row 106
ALTER TABLE `mdl_course` MODIFY COLUMN `sortorder` bigint(10) signed NOT NULL DEFAULT '0'
Error code: ddlexecuteerror
Stack trace:

I don't often post, so please give me feedback as to more information that I can give on the subject. I don't want to brain-dump everything about the instance for fear of getting tl;dr from everyone who could help me, so I want to know what's relevant.

These are the exact packages I am using.
