Admin Page Gone

Hey All,

Just upgraded my site from 4.6 to 4.7 and everything went pretty smooth. Database converted successfully and when I finally figured out that I needed to move my style sheet and some other old stuff from my bak dir to the new site the rest of it fell into place.

I thought it was smooth sailing from there on out but then I noticed in the settings page of the admin node that there was an error as follows:

Multibyte string input conversion in PHP is active and must be disabled. Check the php.ini mbstring.http_input setting. Please refer to the PHP mbstring documentation for more information.

Not having access to the php.ini I wrote a not to the support group that hosts my site (supremeservers) and they responded promptly by telling me I could create a php.ini in the root of my site and add any options I wanted in there. So I added the following line to php.ini and uploaded the file:

mbstring.http_input = off

After clearning my cache and reloading the page the error message went away and again I thought all was good. But, still thinking I needed to make sure everything was working correctly I went through all the settings under admin and sure enough they all were fine. But then I clicked on the admin node itself - the root node that says 'administer'. Thats when I got the blank page.

Viewing source on the blank page gives me nothing - its empty. The url in the bar looks like its pointing to the right place to me: http://magnusontech.net/?q=admin but all I get is a blank page.

URL not working after upgrade

Hi, please I need some help! After I upgraded from the 4.7 beta release to 4.7.3 version I am having problems with urls. This is an example; When I click on the login url I am redirected to the login page where I can enter my username / password, then when I click on the submit button I am sent to "/index.php?q=user/" and a blank page comes up. If I hit refresh then mypage comes and everything works well. This also happens when I click on Logout - I am sent to /Logout/ then a black page comes in until I hit refresh again...

Not so easy way to upgrade Drupal

Dear friends,

I apologise for my curiousity, but I rarely choose the easiest way.

After OS Upgrade (Debian Sarge->Testing, i.e. php4->php5, mysql 4.x->5.0.22) I decided to upgrade the development version of a site from Drupal 4.6.5 -> 4.7.3. Backups were carefully done. I've done a clean installation of Drupal first, then added required modules and, finally, tried to fill the database tables, using saved as SQL old data.

During the installation I used the mysql 4.1 template for the Drupal DB. What bothers me is a noticeable difference in definition of `node` table:

What I have now from the template:

CREATE TABLE `node` (
  `nid` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
  `vid` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
  `type` varchar(32) NOT NULL default '',
  `title` varchar(128) NOT NULL default '',
  `uid` int(10) NOT NULL default '0',
  `status` int(4) NOT NULL default '1',
  `created` int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
  `changed` int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
  `comment` int(2) NOT NULL default '0',
  `promote` int(2) NOT NULL default '0',
  `moderate` int(2) NOT NULL default '0',
  `sticky` int(2) NOT NULL default '0',
  PRIMARY KEY  (`nid`,`vid`),
  UNIQUE KEY `vid` (`vid`),
  KEY `node_type` (`type`(4)),
  KEY `node_title_type` (`title`,`type`(4)),
  KEY `status` (`status`),

Ecommerce module's product list don't appear

I just upgraded from 4.6.5 to 4.7.3 Drupal as it's UPGRADE.txt says. After that I install Internationalization module and Ecommerce Package (For drupal 4.7.x). I used Ecommerce already on 4.6.5 version so the products are ready and I can see them one by one. Everything should be allright, but..

1) I can't see product list. As I try q=product there will be an empty page, only says "Products"

2) It seems it's not possible to edit prices etc. of old products

"edit primary links" problem?

my "edit primary links" in bluemarine refuses to go away or edit. If I add any links they won't show up there and "edit primary links" still is there by itself even after being deleted, edited, etc...

When I click it it takes me to administer page.

I'm I having a glitch, bug probolem or i'm I doing something wrong?

Cannot edit menus after upgrade from 4.7.1 to 4.7.3

Hi,

After upgrading to 4.7.3 I get a php error (just a blank page, nothing logged) when I try to edit (or disable, delete, ...) a menu item. I've tried several things, even upgrading to the latest tarball but I cannot find what could be wrong.

Anyone any ideas?
Thanks,
duvelman.
