Upgrading Drupal

Hi,

I'm an artist and graphic designer setting up a an independent publishing platform on Drupal. I used to work with Adobe software and decided to move to free software for philosophical reasons.

I began using Drupal 3 weeks ago on version 4.7.6 since my hosting provider (mt) has it available as 1-click install application.

I then upgraded to version 5.0 carefully following .txt instructions. Website running smoothly for a week.

I have no previous experience with php ot html. I have used the Graphic Interface to set up teh content and settings of my site.

Today I began the upgrade process to version 6.0 but in the process I got confused between default.settings.php and settings.php and while trying to change $update_free_access = from FALSE to TRUE I got confused between files and lost track of what I was doing.

I have lost/deleted my settings.php file from my work with version 5.0 and have no back-up of such file.

When I run the update.php script I get and installation screen instead of a step further in the upgrading process

How can I restore my settings so I can continue with my upgrade?

I suppose my content is safe in my MySql database managed through my server but it seems that since I lost my settings.php file I can't proceed further in the upgrading process.

Hello. Tried to upgrade to drupal 6.0, but got some problems and there for descided to roll back to 5.3.
Uploaded all the backup of the entire site, and uploaded the sqldump. Now I have this test on the top of my site
e_get($cid, 'cache'); if (!empty($cache->data) && $cache->expire > time()) { $projects = unserialize($cache->data); } } return $projects; }

Also i get this error message:

* warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /customers/smrk.org/smrk.org/httpd.www/modules/update_status/update_status.module:8) in /customers/smrk.org/smrk.org/httpd.www/includes/common.inc on line 141.

Looks that I misunderstood something, but
I followed the instructions on http://drupal.org/drupal-6.0 for upgrading from 5.x to 6.0:

1. disabled ALL modules but the core ones
2. uninstalled the "update status" module
3. cleared the sites drupal directory
4. un-tared the 6.0 file
5. restored the settings.php file

and got a long list of error messages.
What is going wrong?

Hello everybody, i'm not able to upgrade my drupal installation (http://ingeinfopa.netsons.org).

I upgraded to drupal 5.7 and i upgraded my contrib module included but not only date and date_api.

But it seems that the upgrade process via the update.php script does not complete. It simply start and it never finish.

I tried to run the upgrade only for these two modules and i'm sure that they are the only modules that i can't upgrade.

This is causing a lot of problem with view modules and so on.

I was created block on left, right... But not see any block. Tried change to default theme, but still not see.
How repair it?

Hi,

I have 3 Drupal sites installed in a shared hosting server. In only one of them (the main one), I started to have 2 major problems :
1. I'm not able to uninstall or update any module. The update.php is run, but no changes are made to upgrade database scheme.

2. I have troubles with attaching files using the attach button. I made a search in the forum, I tried a lot of suggestions (enable default favicon, etc...). But I couldn't resolve the problem.

Thanks
