Changing ownership on directories

How to change ownership on files and folders? It isnt file permissions i want to change, it is ownership.

Looks like all the files and folders inside my 'files' folder have a different ownership than all the rest of my Drupal files and folders.

I've probably made a mistake somewhere when upgrading.

Anyway, now, there is no way for me to edit those page-nodes linked to any images coming from those 'foreign' folders

And i havent really found any documentation on the site about that.

Any ideas?

Drupal Book Review

I upgraded to 4.7 recently and now I am seeing an error when accessing a book review.

upgrade from 4.4.0 to 4.7.3

is it possible to do the upgrade directly (changing files, running update.php)? anything special to watch for?
or should i do it step by step? as in 4.4 to 4.5 then 4.5 to 4.6.3 and so on...? (like in http://drupal.org/node/75047)

Want to edit node: Showing blank page

I'v just upgraded to 4.7 from 4.6.9 on a commercial site.

Now, i'm trying to convert images to products using the ecommerce module. To do that i need to select the edit tab in that particular node i want to convert.

Certain nodes, only a couple of them without any obvious relation between them, are showing a blank page when clicking on the edit tab. Actually, when i type in the address bar, lets say:

http://mysite.com/index.php?q=node/375/edit

, it just shows a blank page on certain nodes.

Others work fine.

What could be the reasons why they show a blank page? Has that something to do with the database?

thanks for a little assistance.

mysql 4.0 -> 4.1 upgrade issues

Hello,

My hosting provider just upgraded our mysql 4.0 to 4.1

I have run queries on all the tables in my database to upgrade to utf8:

alter tablename character set utf8;

My site is still just coming up with a plain white screen of death. Any ideas?

Thank you,
Dan

Certain content unviewable after upgrade

Hello all,

Last night I upgraded my site from 4.6.3 to 4.7.3, and it pretty much worked (after a bit of tinkering w/ the .htaccess file), except two BIG issues (one larger than the other, though):

1 -- most stories/pages are unviewable (the edit and track pages work fine, which I can do as admin, but others surely cannot)
2 -- the "edit" page for users is unviewable (the basic view works fine)

Only four content pages work (to my knowledge), and they are the four pages (nodes 1, 2, 4, 7) that are also secondary links for the whole site. The content for the missing pages is there in mySQL-- I can see it when I browse via phpMyAdmin-- but I can't access most of it via the Drupal-delivered webpages. What could have happened to the ability to access this content? All other specific content (such as newsfeeds, taxonomy, etc. work fine). The update only give me one error, which had to do with the aggregator module-- which I assume is pretty unrelated to this problem. All the old 4.6.x modules are still activated.

Also, here's the "update" script that seems to most pertain to the four pages I *CAN* view (but I don't know if this WHY I can view those):


Update #151

* INSERT INTO {menu} (mid, pid, path, title, description, weight, type) VALUES (88, 0, '', 'Primary links', '', 0, 115)
* INSERT INTO {menu} (mid, pid, path, title, description, weight, type) VALUES (89, 88, 'node/7', 'about', '', 0, 118)
