Upgrading Drupal

Hi,

We recently moved on from drupal-4.7.3 to drupal-5. We find it bit weird that embedded playlists are not working now with browsers like firefox, opera, though there is no issue with safari.

Example : http://www.shreemaa.org/drupal/node/985

Any help/guidance will be appreciated.

Hi,

I triied to upgrade to 5.3. I only have problems with the Organic Groups module.
When turning update.php, it says that og_ancestry table doesn't exist. The updating process didn't create this table.

So I tried to do the upgrading process again. First I deleted the DB and imported the old from 4.7.5.
I created manualiy the og_anestry table with:

After upgrade from 5.3 to 5.4, I found small bug in user.module - as result, drupal cannot find table users if we use a prefix for tables.

Message:

Table "db.users" doesn't exist query: SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT u.uid) FROM users u LEFT JOIN users_roles ur ON u.uid = ur.uid WHERE u.uid != 0 in /homepages/htdocs/includes/database.mysqli.inc on line 151

Hi Everybody,

I just upgraded from 5.3 to 5.4 and ran into a weird new problem:

While the sitewide rss feed accessible at example.org/rss.xml works fine and displays content from several content types and taxonomy terms the feeds for only some terms stopped working. I mean feeds like example.org/taxonomy/term/263/0/feed . They contain correct rss formatting and channel entries but no items at all although the normal page for these taxonomy terms shows up and displays content correctly.

I just upgraded my 5.3 to 5.4 by copying all files from the included ZIP to my site, which incidentally is hosted at 1and1.com.

Now when I do anything but visit the home page, I get crashes.

I'm pretty sure this has something to do with my .htaccess file and its rewrite engine, but I am not sure. I am investigating at the moment.

I am hosting at 1and1.com if that means anything.

According to this instruction, moving old Drupal's files to "backup" directory and upload new files.

During upgrading process, what happen to my site visitors?
