Due to some changes in 1.6, which allows for all question types to be manually graded and commented, the essay question tables are no longer needed. This means that the data inside the tables must be migrated to other question tables. I have created an upgrade path to do this, but it should be more thoroughly tested before shoving it into 1.6 HEAD. So, those of you who have used the essay question in 1.5, please test these files so you can keep your essay question attempts in 1.6.
Attached are the files with a readme.txt that will hopefully help facilitate the testing.
If don't have any test data, then just looking at question/type/essay/*, mod/quiz/db/mysql.php and mod/quiz/db/postgres7.php to check for any obvious logic problems would be most helpful.
Cheers,
Mark
