Upgraded 4.6 to 4.7 and now problems...

I recently upgraded a drupal site for my fraternity. I was not the one who setup the original site or server. I copied the files and db from an apache setup on ubuntu to a winserver 2003 setup with the latest php and msql.

By upgrading to 4.7, the sessions not sticking problems was fixed but I still have a few problems. I am very much new to Drupal, but not so much the realm of CMS's.

I am just looking to be pointed in the right direction so that I can fix my own problems, but I'll take any help I can get.

Currently I have a local setup of the live site-that is what i upgraded and is what I am working on getting to work before replacing the live site.

THE PROBLEM:
I do not know what functionality/module governs this, but the upgrade has seemed to break it. I need to know what allows one to enter in the following text:

|_. Gamma Eta Alumni||
|"Major Thomas B. McGuire":tb_mcguire|"Willis Mead Everett, Jr":willis_mead_everett_jr|
|"Ensign Joseph Briggs Stubbins":joseph_briggs_stubbins|"Robert McAlpine Maxwell":robert_mcalpine_maxwell|
|"Edward Barton Hamm":edward_barton_hamm|"Oliver Whiting Bishop":oliver_whiting_bishop|

And have it turn into a table

All old content displayed as "n/a" after upgrading.

Hi,

I am in the process of upgrading a fairly large site from 4.7 to 5.1, everything has gone somothely so far but have hit a problem.

All old content is displayed as 5 pages of the word "n/a", even when trying to edit the page.

The site itself, the menus etc. are fine and any new content works correctly, I am just unable to display any content which was created on the old site.

I'm guessing it's a missing mod of some kind, but I'm fairly sure I have repleced the 4.7 mods with 5.x equivalents.

Anyone able to throw some light on this?

theme.inc fatal error without events

I have just upgraded my second drupal site, http://thelilypad.org, from 4.7 to 5.1. The error I am getting, never happened on my first upgraded site. And that site used the event module, which most people have pointed to as causing trouble. I also have not been tweaking any of the code myself, and all my installed modules are upgraded to 5.1. And both sites are maintained in the same server space, so the only differences between the two are the enabled modules.

This is my error:

Where does Taxonomy store the index of the next term?

I'm in the process of updating a site from 4.7.6 to 5.1, and it's not running very smooth. Somewhere along the way, one of my vocabularies (the most important one, of course) was deleted. I think AcidFree did that, but I'm not sure. Anyway, I copied over the old term and vocabulary tables, and that works, but now when I want to add terms, I get an error about a duplicate entry in the data base.

So my question is: where does taxonomy keep information about the highest term number it has used? If I can find that, I can change it so I won't have any more collisions.

taxonomy depends from category. Why?

Drupal 5.1
After update Category module to last version 2007-Feb-02, and run update.php
Taxonomy module come to Category block in module list and all links for Taxonomy now not work, also as Menu "Categories" for taxonomy.
May by I make previosly some other change, not shure. Bu now I see in module section:

Taxonomy: Wrapper module to provide a compatibility layer between the taxonomy module and the category module.

Previosly

Taxonomy: Enables the categorization of content.

Thank you in advance for any suppose
