Upgrading Drupal

Argh...boy do I feel dumb.

Has anyone else done this but me?

I just successfully upgraded to CiviCRM 1.6 and then carefully (I thought) stepped through the process of upgrading Drupal 4.7 to 5.0. Somewhere along the way, I guess when I did the update.php, I didn't give the correct database name/table prefix and now my old tables are sitting there unchanged and I have a bunch of new tables from the 5.0 update.

Is there any way to remedy this besides restoring from backup and starting again?

Hi, after upgrading to Drupal 5.0 and reinstalling the Tinymce module, I just cannot get it to appear no matter what I do. It appears checked under the list of modules, and the basic settings are there, but there seems to be no option to add roles like there was before. And so i can't get the actual editor to appear.

I have a question with regard to upgrading Drupal. The documentation states that contributed modules should be re-installed - does it matter if I simply overwrite the modules folder in the installation directory with the modules folder from the previous installation (as opposed to individually uploading the modules)?

Drupal beta 1

Hi everybody, I just got stuck during upgrading due to an error I cant understand. Update.php produces this message:

I have a client site running version 4.6.5. I need to upgrade their Drupal install to make use of some new modules that do not work with their current version. I would like to upgrade to 4.7.5.

I tried going directly from 4.6.5 to 4.7.5 but that produced a large list of SQL errors and failed upgrade messages.

I restored the database and php files from backups.

I then tried going from 4.6.5 to 4.6.11. That seemed to work. I then tried upgrading from 4.6.11 to 4.7.5 but that produced a large list of SQL errors and failed upgrade messages.

Again I restored the database and php files from backups.

I then tried upgrading to each individual revision step by step, all the way from 4.6.5 to 4.7.5. When I get to the 4.6.11 to 4.7.0 upgrade I get a large list of SQL errors and failed upgrade messages:

* user warning: Table 'search_total' already exists query: CREATE TABLE search_total ( word varchar(50) NOT NULL default '', count int(10) unsigned default NULL, PRIMARY KEY word (word) ) in /home/greg/dev/drupal/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 120.
* user warning: Can't DROP 'path'; check that column/key exists query: ALTER TABLE blocks DROP path in /home/greg/dev/drupal/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 120.

Hello,

After upgrading Drupal 5.0-RC1 to Drupal 5.0, I get a "Pge not found" error. I uploaded all files accept the /sites directory and I've also lost the site title.

Thanks
