Upgrading Drupal

Hi everyone!

I used to have a functional webserver with a Drupal 5.3 site in there. It was running on a Fedora Core 6 box. Now I built a new webserver on Ubuntu 7.10. The webserver is now working fine (Apache2, PHP5, and MySQL, phpAdmin).

My problem is this. I'm going to migrate my Drupal-5.3 website from the other hard disk to my new computer running Ubuntu 7.10 (a new webserver). Is it OKAY if I now install Drupal 6.2 here and then migrate my "old site"? Or should I use my old webserver (drupal-5.3) and UPGRADE to 6.2 from there?

After uploading new files, while trying to upgrade site went blank

Tried following:
a) $update_free_access = TRUE;
b) new installation
i) old db access changing db info from settings.php
ii) copied data from old db to new one

same result for all.

Thank you.

Hello.

Looking for help with this error message when I tried to upgrade on my local host.
Fatal error: Call to undefined function user_current_to_arg() in G:\www\webapps\drupal\includes\menu.inc on line 594.
Any help would be great. Thanks

Ouch, admin area is broken after update, here is the error:

array_pop() [<a href='function.array-pop'>function.array-pop</a>]: The argument should be an array in /home/.../public_html/update.php on line 315.

any ideas how to fix this? apart from going back to v6.1?

thanks.

Hi!

First I'll like to thank the drupal team, for their neverending work!

I'm trying to upgrade my site from 6.1 to 6.2 but I'm experiencing some troubles. I have read the upgrade.txt and tried to follow it as good as possible; changed my theme to garland, put my site into maintenance mode, disabled all "none-core" modules. But when i tried to run mysite.com/update.php I got this error:
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function _system_theme_data() in /var/www/html/includes/theme.inc on line 431

Now, no matter what page I try to enter, I get the same error.

Hi

I upgraded one of my sites to Drupal 6, but now I need a module that is only available for Drupal 5. Is there an easy way to downgrade a site to a previous version? I'd rather not use my 5.x backup because there have been a lot of changes in the site content.

Thanks
