I have tried upgrading from 4.6.6 to 4.7 several times. Each time the database upgrade script seems to do its work (no errors) but once it's finished all pages are blank.
I don't know what's going wrong, but perhaps I could try doing a fresh install and inserting the users and posts manually. However, I am not sure which tables I would need to insert then.
Does anybody have suggestions to either running the upgrade script well or manually converting the db?
Not to sound stupid...but where are the upgrade from 4.6x instructions? The install.txt that is linked to off the main page doesn't seem to contain upgrade instructions.
This probably sounds stupid to seasoned veterans, but it caught me this morning, and I've been using Drupal for a couple years.
Best practice is to backup your old drupal install directory and replace it with the new version's contents. In other words, you shouldn't un-tar on top of your old install, you should install a fresh, new copy of drupal and copy the pertinent files from your old install. I've always done it this way, and I've never had a problem.
