This forum is for questions about upgrading an existing Drupal site. Don't forget to read the UPGRADE.txt file that comes with every Drupal download.

we have a really old version of drupal and...

I just discovered that our website prisonactivist.org runs on drupal version 4.3
Would it make more sense to uninstall and do a clean installation of drupal 6.1, or would it be better to go through all of the upgrades? If so, do I have to upgrade to 4.7 and then 5.0, or can i go straight to 5.0 and then to 6.0?

Also, how can i know if the modules I have in 4.3 will still work in 6.1 and any of the versions inbetween?

thanks

Where can I find the documentation how to upgrade from Drupal 5 to 6?

I have Drupal 5.2 and I want to upgrade to 6.1.

I don't know how to do it and I am not able to find any documentations.

Can anyone tell me where I can find it or how to do it?

Thanks. :-)

Help me log in

I installed 5.1 originally, slight modifications but ran into server settings problems. Finally got those resolved. Installed Gallery, and wanted to update to 5.7 before installing the Gallery embed module.

Instead of moving my old drupal folder, I put 5.7 into a new folder. Managed to get as far as updating the database, and because I was in a new folder had to change true to false in update.php.

But now I can't log in, because my new drupal 5.7 is still in maintenance.

How can I get in?

Can I still go to my old folder for 5.1? I haven't tried that yet.

Upgradig from 5.0- 5.7- All links break, content disappears- everytime I click a link I get page not found....

I recently upgraded all of the modules on my site as well as taking the initiative to upgrade the core to drupal 5.7 from a previous version 5.0. After doing the update.php and discovering that all of the files were successful, I could not successfully log back into the site to put it back online. Nor could I click any part of the site, instead it would give me a basic layout- real basic and tell me the page could not be found.... Doe anybody have any suggestions on what I did wrong and how I can fix this?

What version do I have?

Hi,

I am pretty new to Drupal and I just took over a website that uses Drupal. All our section websites are hosted by an NGO organisation that is unfortunately a bit difficult to get hold of. So I am wondering what version I am using. I tried to upgrade to 6.1 but always got an error message so I reinstalled the old version. When I open the changelog.txt the first lines are:

// $Id: CHANGELOG.txt,v 1.253.2.5 2008/02/27 19:44:44 goba Exp $
