You can check the fields by clicking on Structure when viewing the table ...
The products_name in the table orders_products appears to only be 64 characters ...

products_name
is set to ...

orders_products
You need to have those set to the same size ... in your case 96 or more ...

The database side is easy, the upgrade process takes care of that for the most part.
The file side depends on how you made the changes you did. More specifically, what files you modified. Hopefully you created a template folder in which to put all of your customizations. Even if not, it's not so much difficult as time consuming depending on the tools available and level of experience.
