Hi,
Yes I have backups and had to use them after first upgrade attempt failed. Studying the Drupal handbook on upgrade, I did not find any thing I missed.
This second attempt is going pretty much the same.
After login as user 1, I updated all the Drupal files after removing all the old files, configured settings.php, restored my files folder, then tried to run the update script. http://www.mysite.com/update.php
For privacy I have replaced my domain name with mysite.com.
This is the initial output.
Warning: Unknown column 'referer' in 'field list' query: INSERT INTO watchdog (uid, type, message, severity, link, location, referer, hostname, timestamp) VALUES (1, 'php', 'Duplicate column name 'severity'\nquery: ALTER TABLE watchdog ADD severity tinyint(3) unsigned NOT NULL default '0' in /var/www/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 121.', 2, '', 'http://www.mysite.com/update.php', '', '192.168.1.1', 1178502063) in /var/www/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 121
