Hi Midek,

What are you using to update the install that gave you that error?

I'm having the same issue, and some others. Noob to Drupal.

Hi Guys,

I've looked into this a bit. It doesn't look like the update manager knows how to install profiles correctly.

To update I would suggest doing the following:

1. Backup the database by dumping it out to a sql file (phpmyadmin can do this or you can use drush sql-dump)
2. Download Openpublish from here: http://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/openpublish-7.x-1.0-beta4-core.zip (or the tar one, depending on whats better for you).
4. Copy your default sites folder (with settings.php and files directories) and save this copy for later. (very important).
3. Extract that and then upload it over top (i.e. replacing) your current drupal folder (its the whole site). Then replace the (drupal)/sites/default folder with the one you saved in the previous step.
4. Go to your-site-domain.com/update.php and run the updates

Then you should be done. Make sure to backup the database and copy out that sites folder before moving anything.

Hope that helps.
