MySQL continue after Duplicate entry error

Find mysql's data directory, and chown that to MySQL's user (typically mysql:mysql)...

Got it solved.

the variable @force_reinit_subscription in sp_addrticlecolumn must be either null or 0.

I commented that line out, and it's working like a charm.

Here is the full working code:
