Upgrading Drupal

Hi guys... Love Drupal. Love it a lot. I am extremely amateur with all this stuff (couldn't write html let alone PhP - but can read and understand it now)...

I have a website up and running which I am very pleased with.

But I have two problems.

1) One is that when I use any of the upload modules (upload, image picker, file attachment, mediaAPI, mmedia etc) I can't seem to have any of my users allowed to use them (except upload of course) because the modeules do not appear in the permissions....?

I recently upgraded my Drupal 5.3 to 5.5 and it went swimmingly. I had a great side-effect , my access_log which were previously broken (as in they never filled up no matter what setting I set in admin just like these guys describe http://drupal.org/node/172162 ) now suddenly worked, and all was well in the land.

This morning I had a bit of a run in with ref spammers and after downloading the watchdog table I decided to empty it (and did so via phpmyadmin) because it had gotten to be quite large.

If I have a site that is version 5.2 can I upgrade directly to 5.6 or do I need to do the incremental upgrades.

Thanks

Hello,

This is sort of a spin-off of a post I started here: http://drupal.org/node/206576

The short and the long:
-I had a 4.7.x site
-exported the user table
-installed 5.5
-imported the user table
-users are are able to log in OK,
but...
it seems that some sort of "counter" has been reset and new accounts that get created are trying to over-write user 2, 3, 4, etc.
Know what I mean?

Hi everyone,

I'm upgrading a 4.6.x site with a custom theme. The original themes have been deleted from the code base and I need to install something simple like bluemarine before I can run the update script on the db.

Can anyone point me to a link where I can find a copy of 4.6.x - I might be being stupid but I can't find one?

Cheers

how it's possible to try to use old 5.x modules in 6 rc2 ? i mean in modules admin page the old module seems disabled, how can in i force it (at my own risk) and use them ?
