upgrade error?

Hello

I just upgraded from 5.1 to 5.7 following update manual, everithing looked ok, even update.php showed not errors, however when I try to access my site install.php is loaded instead of requested file, it keeps asking for database and use name, how can I access my site?

Please help

Mysql warnings: SELECT vid , duplicate key, etc

Hello,

I successfully upgraded from 4.7.6 to 4.7.11 to 5.0 then to 5.7. Then I decide to upgrade from 5.7 to 6.0.

When I did the update.php proper, I got a page saying register globals had to be disabled. So I searched this website and found out I had to add this to .htaccess: AddType x-mapp-php5 .ph.

I did this (I knew it worked cause I used it on a previous upgrade).

Then instead of clicking on the "continue button" I reloaded the page so the modified .htacesss file would be taken into account. Was that a mistake?

Then I got a lot of mysql warnings, and I thought perhaps reloading was the cause, so I ran update.php again (I've read you shouldn't do that but I didn't know what to do).

I got no error warnings, just the update button, so I cliked on it.

Then I got a lots of warnings. Here they are:

* user warning: You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'SELECT vid FROM node n WHERE t.nid = n.nid)' at line 1 query: UPDATE term_node t SET vid = (SELECT vid FROM node n WHERE t.nid = n.nid) in /homepages/xxx/htdocs/modules/system/system.install on line 1154.

Error with Upgrading to 6.0 - language and headers

I am going from the latest 5.x.whatever... just updated, and can't remember the latest numbers.

Anyway.... I've been trying to upgrade to 6.0 and these are the error messages I receive:

On first page of update.php:

Warning: Unknown column 'language' in 'where clause' query: SELECT src FROM url_alias WHERE dst = 'node' AND language IN('en', '') ORDER BY language DESC in /home/*myaccount*/public_html/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 128

Followed by:

* warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/*myaccount*/public_html/includes/database.mysql.inc:128) in /home/*myaccount*/public_html/includes/common.inc on line 141.
* warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/*myaccount*/public_html/includes/database.mysql.inc:128) in /home/*myaccount*/public_html/includes/common.inc on line 141.

Next page shows the same errors.

Then I come to the next page and just get this error:

Warning: Unknown column 'language' in 'where clause' query: SELECT src FROM url_alias WHERE dst = 'node' AND language IN('en', '') ORDER BY language DESC in /home/*myaccount*/public_html/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 128

And nothing else. Not even a theme loads up. The rest is a blank page.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
Have a great day!

unable to change administrative settings after upgrade

I upgraded from 4.7 to 5.7 today (yay, finally). Everything looks good, but I am unable to change administrative settings.

For example, I:

1. to http://www.example.net/admin/settings/site-information
2. change the name of the site title from 'doodaday' to 'gobbledybobbledy'.
3. click 'save configuration'

And get a message, "The configuration options have been saved.", but the name of my site is still 'doodaday'.

Yelp!

Database merge - sequences are not correctly evaluated

I upgraded from 4.5.x to 4.7.11 which worked flawlessly, but I also merged my databases into one single instance (mysql 4.1). I am sharing the following tables:

- sequences
- profile_fields
- profile_values
- users
- users_roles
- role
- authmap
- sessions

All has been successfully imported to the new database, but now when I try to create a new object (article, menu item, or whatever) it tries to use 1 as new id. How is this possible, those values should be taken from the table sequences, or am I wrong (and those are correct)?
