Upgrading Drupal

The database on the website I'm using is somewhat large. The flexinode_data table contains data for mostly 4 types of nodes, the largest of which has 6548 nodes. Thus, when I run flexiconvert, I get a 500 - Internal Server Error, which is caused by using too much memory. I have a fair amount of confidence that the culprit is PHP's bad garbage collecting. Needless to say, bad garbage collection would present a problem not only for flexiconvert, but any PHP script written to do the conversion. Would anybody have any ideas to address the problem?

Thanks,

Hello,

The images added to a couple of hundred of image fields in a flexinode content type are no longer displayed. Instead there is a link Get original file (5KB) that does lead to the image.

Also all the links are no longer work in flexinode nodes because now there is "node" element inside the links. So a link pointing to ihea.info/printorder is not ihea.info/node/printorder.

See example page: http://ihea.info/node/438

I'm upgrading from 4.7.3 to 5.1.
First I upgraded to 4.7.6 and all modules to latest versions (4.7.x)
Here I'm getting a strange problem , in some of my nodes it does not show body of content.Also it showing full node instead of teaser.

This problem persist after upgrading to 5.1.
How to resolve this.

Hi I recently upgraded to drupal 4.7.3 because my site broke after a move to a new host who used php5.

I have sucessfully upgraded the site and database and modules although I am having problems with the audio module
but the reson I am posting is because users get logged out automatically after going to the home page.
It used to be I could not log in at all but then I applied a fix I found on this site which was to add

$GLOBALS['tempUser'] = $user;

Is it possible to convert CCK type to story type.

I'm about to attempt an upgrade from 4.6.10 to 4.7. The upgrade.txt file says:

3. Remove all the old Drupal files then unpack the new Drupal
files into the directory that you run Drupal from.

So exactly what comprises the old Drupal files? Does that mean all the modules including contributed modules or only the core modules or neither? Would it make sense to feed the output of a tar tzf into a perl script that removed files of the same name?

Thanks,
Jim.
