This tutorial shows how to get rid of the "Unknown column ‘otpKey’ in ‘field list’" error upon sample data installation.

Copy the following sql query:

INSERT INTO 'jos_users' ('id', 'name', 'username', 'email', 'password', 'block', 'sendEmail', 'registerDate', 'lastvisitDate', 'activation', 'params', 'lastResetTime', 'resetCount') VALUES(846, 'Demo User', 'demo', '[email protected]', '$2y$10$Kx9.xksMc0Rh19yJxOtqUOIQZ7OaxfheK7zSAsak7elym/kwAzjqW', 0, 0, '2012-10-17 10:56:12', '2014-12-10 07:17:39', '', '{"admin_style":"","admin_language":"","language":"","editor":"","helpsite":"","timezone":""}', '0000-00-00 00:00:00', 0),(847, 'Lorem Ipsum', 'lorem_ipsum', '[email protected]', '$2y$10$Q7Bx5hmTOcx6Cn/FxAHYMOjEIrvvJdKPfz4UB.qc9Fm1/eXeXc.ci', 0, 0, '2014-12-09 10:29:04', '2014-12-09 10:46:07', '', '{}', '0000-00-00 00:00:00', 0),(848, 'Dolor Sit', 'dolor_sit', '[email protected]', '$2y$10$riCCfC6p3sOqQUb5I6mvHuevAlCuThyt5TsVgLLUzZNYLP4zm/JUy', 0, 0, '2014-12-09 10:37:28', '2014-12-09 14:09:16', '', '{}', '0000-00-00 00:00:00', 0);

Replace standard jos_ prefix with your Joomla database table prefix. In our case database tables have the cpj26_ prefix.
Open the database.
Go to the SQL tab.
Paste the query.
Click on the Go button in order to execute the query.
