Hi,

This is step number 10:

"Run update.php by visiting http://www.example.com/update.php (replace
www.example.com with your Drupal installation's domain name and path). This
step will update the core database tables to the new Drupal installation.

Note: if you are unable to access update.php do the following:

- Open your settings.php with a text editor.

- There is a line that says $update_free_access = FALSE;
Change it to $update_free_access = TRUE;

- Once update.php is done, you must change the settings.php file
back to its original form with $update_free_access = FALSE;"

Do I need to do this part on a local host below?

Note: if you are unable to access update.php do the following:

- Open your settings.php with a text editor.

- There is a line that says $update_free_access = FALSE;
Change it to $update_free_access = TRUE;

- Once update.php is done, you must change the settings.php file
back to its original form with $update_free_access = FALSE;"

And can't I be logged in as a simple user? Why are they talking about User ID1?

Thanks a lot,

This is all you have to do

if you are running local
http://local:8888/sitename

Note: I use port 8888 for MAMP on my Mac.

Hello Road Runner,

I only have the following path http://name/

So, I only need to have http://name/update.php

I don't need to do http://localhost/nameofsite to get to my site usually. I only have http://name of the site/

And I have another site the same way. I remember that I had port 80.

Thanks,
