Upgrading from 4.6.5 to 4.6.8

By johnhanley on 19 Jun 2006 at 23:37 UTC

I have moderately customized various modules of my 4.6.5 installation and need to know which specific files were updated between 4.6.5 and 4.6.8. The change log lists the changes, but not the specific files.

Thanks!

Or you could have a small script running a diff on every file of the distribution (of the original 4.6.5 and yours).
This will tell you what files you changed.
Alternatively you could diff the 4.6.5 and 4.6.8 originals.

Andre, thanks for the suggestion. I ended up doing exactly that and all is well.

No problem

I will face the same problem soon. I made too many changes and despite good intentions forgot to write them down.
I still dread the update to 4.7. I wish there was an easy button for this.

I just upgraded a site from 4.6.5 to 4.6.8 recently. You'll want to update to 4.6.7 first (there is a change in the database) before updating to 4.6.8. From http://drupal.org/drupal-4.7.2 :

For the most trouble-free transition from an existing installation, it is recommended that you first upgrade to Drupal 4.6.7 or Drupal 4.7.1.

Bryan,

According to SA-2006-005 the SQL-related change in 4.6.7 is with the "database layer" (database.pgsql.inc and database.mysql.inc) and not the database itself.

Please correct me if you know differently.

Thanks,
John

Please tell me, how to recognize drupal version, which I have installed long time ago ?
it is 4.6.5 or 4.6.8 or something else ?

I have tried to search in db with "4.6%" - nothing.
Files have header simular to

// $Id: settings.php,v 1.12.2.2 2005/04/14 18:35:19 dries Exp $

i.e. nothing about actual Drupal version :(

To find out what version you

Anatsim commented 21 June 2006 at 20:50

To find out what version you are running, look for the file CHANGELOG.txt in the root of your Drupal directory and open it up to find the version you are running.

Thanks, but I have deleted file CHANGELOG.txt :(
