I had the same problem, it was because I'd done a practise upgrade, then after that was successful I reimported the production database to do a real upgrade. The import SQL file I was using didn't have a "DROP DATABASE IF EXISTS" line in it, so any new tables created by the practise upgrade remained, resulting in this error.
