Problem updating v. 4.7.3

I have updated the version of Drupal of my site from 4.7.2 to 4.7.3 and obtain the following error:

"Content-Length: 455

Updating

An unrecoverable error has occured. You can find the error message below. It is advised to copy it to the clipboard for reference. Please continue to the update summary
Content-Length: 455 { "status": true, "percentage": 100, "message": "Updating complete" }"

Tanks for your help.

Upgrading from 4.6 to 4.7 on a >500Mb db via update.php

I just tried to run update.php on a mysql db with 16.000+ nodes and 180.000 comments.

The page was displaying

Updating
Starting updates

Please wait while your site is being updated.

for 24 hours, then I checked the db to see if its structure matches the 4.7 and I saw the system table which is AFAIU a table introduced in 4.7.

Now, the page is still showing up the old "Starting updates" message.

How do I know the updates finished successfully?

Missing pages after upgrade

Hello,

Han anyone figured out how to fix the missing pages problem with the Drupal 4.7.3 upgrade? We also are using Drupal on a commercial site and need this fixed ASAP.

We see the pages in node_revisions but some content just displays plank pages.

ownership and permission

Is there anybody who could tell me why, on my server (actually i rent space on a server) i got some drupal files which ownership arent mine, i mean the root user. Instead, the owner is a number, something like 454.

Now it is impossible for me to delete or rename or move any files contained in that folder.
i've tried from within drupal, and from the cpanel and from an ftp client. Nothing works

God, how to overcome that?!

thanks

Mail module (only <4.7) was great - Can I clone the functionality using Subscriptions in 4.7?

Hi. I have a site which used to be 4.6. There was a great, simple module (that has not been updated to 4.7) called Mail - which let me create an instance of a new content type, Mail, and send it to all users depending on role. This was exactly what I needed to be able to tell everybody on the site that something was new. As I said, it has not been updated, and there is no equivalent way to do this on 4.7 (Mime/mail plus Send, etc, etc - I have tried them all, and none of the ways work.) I am looking into what it would take to update the Mail module to 4.7, but in the meantime ...

It seems to me that I might be able to use the Subscriptions-4.7.0 module to do this: I want to compose a message (some sort of node - it could be a page, or a story, or a new content type that I only use for this purpose) and then send that node, or if I can't send the node, then a URL that points to the node, to the entire list of registered (that is, authenticated) users. Note that there are already about 15,000 users and none of them have signed up for anything - but I do have their email addresses in the users database, and they have opted-in. I would want all users, new ones who 'auto-subscribe' and also old users (I want to auto-subscribe all users with a given role) to get the message.

I would not necessarily want all 15000 users to get emails every time something new is posted to the site, so it seems that the best way to do this would be create a new content type just for this use.

4.5.2 -> 4.6.9 Upgrade: QUEUE table doesn't exist, and WATCHDOG.severity missing

I tried an upgrade from my ancient 4.5.2 version to 4.6.9 today.

All went well in the conversion (no errors), but after running upgrade.php using 2005-01-14 as the start date (4.5.2 CHANGELOG.txt shows it's from 2005-01-15) I get the errors below instead of the home page.

Any suggestions on what I might try?

Cheers,

Geoff S.
