Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
Hello,
Was running drush 2 and everytime I issue the command 'drush dl ' I get:
WD php: simplexml_load_file(): I/O warning : failed to load external entity "6.x" in /home/user/bin/drush/commands/pm/pm.drush.inc on line [error]
1165.
Upgraded drush to 3.0b1 and I get the same error.
Might be related but update status does not work as well.
What can I check? Thanks in advance.
