Upgrading Drupal

I have just updated from 4.5 to 4.7 (w/o 4.6 in between). There were several errors, all of which have been resolved. The remaining problem is that when someone clicks on login they are directed to http://user/login. Obviously, this should be http://www.example.com/user/login.

Any suggestions?

I had automated the arduous task of keeping my Drupal servers up to date, but I noticed today that the module tar file naming convention has changed from 4.7.0.tar.gz to 4.7.x-1.(random).tar.gz.

Does anyone know if the 4.7.0.tar.gz files are being kept up to date? Many of the 4.7.0.tar.gz modules seem to have been updated even into the month of November, so I am hopeful that this is the case.

If the files with the original naming convention are being maintained, what are the 4.7.x-1... files?

I'm going to move several Drupal 4.7.3 installations from my current shared host account, running Apache 1.0.33 (I think), PHP 4.4.1, and MySQL 4.0.27, to a VPS with a new hosting company. The new server is currently running Apache 2.0, PHP 4.4.2, and MySQL 5.0.22. I'm considering upgrading the PHP to Release 5.someting, too.

My question is: How do I perform such a move?

Or, will this approach work:

Hello

Hi,

I've updated PHP to 5.2.0 and Drupal to 4.7.4. After that I can log in, but the next page logs me out again. A downgrade to PHP 5.1.6 solve the problem.

Does anyone had the same problems? Is this a problem of PHP or Drupal?
