Upgrading Drupal

Hi all,

happy to be a Drupal n00b - but not-so-happy to find out that I shouldn't have installed the versio 6 beta. Why? Well, because I can't install many new modules (there's one in particular I need ) because I get the incompatibility message from my modules management screen.

*SO* - can I downgrade from version 6 to the latest stable version 5?

If so, how do I do it properly without losing my database and site... ?

Thanks!

Hey all,

Everything else to do with the Forum module seems to be fine, when I look at the categories - they all appear. When I look at the category vocab it states as expected that it's 'fixed' to forum topics. Everything seems to be as it should, yet when you node/add/forum the taxonomy selection doesn't appear? Very frustrating... I even tried using the devel module to reinstall the forum module - and nope, still no selection box.

Help please! Has anyone got any ideas?

We installed Drupal using CPanel > Fantastico. I having two problems: I am trying to install a module that didn’t come with the version we have (5.1) and since it was install using Fantastico, I am not sure how to do this. The other problem is how do I upgrade to version 5.2 using Fantastico.

I thought I just upgraded my site with the lastest 4.7.7 core, but after doing the routine and then using my site's system info module, it reports:

Drupal
Version 4.7.8
Configuration file sites/default/settings.php

I already upgrade my site from 4.7x to 5.1x
all are working fine except password is not taken correct.

I am using user_register.tpl.php.
I am using logintoboggan module for direct register & login (user having permission for creating account & setting password at same time)

but what ever password is set by user is not properly storing into database.
i.e if user enter password :"Hello"
into database it store as only first character:"H"
not total string.

My host is going to upgrade from PHP 4.4.0 to 5.2.0 in a week. Since they are very nice people (non-profit IT-student association) they have copied my sites to a test server with the new config running.

I have a few Drupal 5.2 sites. One of them works fine on the new server unless I try to go to the admin pages -- then I get the dreaded White Screen of Death. The other two sites, which have a lot more modules, show a white screen from the start.
