Upgrading Drupal

Is there a way to modify the .htaccess file so that it works with PHP in safe mode? I have a site for which the database has been moved and the server updated. The site is no longer working although the configuration file has been changed to reflect the changes in the db name and password. The IT person at the Univeristy where this is located thinks there is a problem with the .htaccess file but I am not sure how to deal with this. I want to upgrade the installation but can't even login to the site given the current configuration problems.

Thanks

Fatal error: Can't open file: 'sessions.MYI'. (errno: 145) query: SELECT u.*, s.* FROM users u INNER JOIN sessions s ON u.uid = s.uid WHERE s.sid = '371b983b67cebb7f9b521eddec935f0d' AND u.status < 3 LIMIT 0, 1 in /home/.../drupal-4.6.3/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 66

This error appeared a week after I upgraded 4.6.3 to 4.6.5 so I don't know for sure if this is related to the upgrade or not. I have no idea what to do with this error, but my site is currently crippled, so any ideas or suggestions on things to check would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi Everyone,

I've just upgraded from 4.6 to 4.7 at www.area51.gen.nz and I have also changed themes so it is a little bare of individualisation at present.

My question for anyone is how can I change from non-clean to clean url's after I have had this feature disabled in previous editions?

Is it a matter of running a sql query to change the database or something else?

Any help is appreciated :)

Cheers

Sally

I recently upgraded my drupal installation. Now if I try to access the site by using url http://domainname/folder ( eg http://www.pollution.net/environmental_blogs) instaed of opening the web page I get a file download box. The problem goes away when I use the full url (eg. http://www.pollution.net/environmental_blogs/index.php).

I recently installed drupal 4.7 and wanted to explore more themes and modules. I was disappointed that 4.7 has very few themes and so I decided to downgrade to 4.6.5.

Its sad that I've lost a lot of the functionality of 4.7, but for now, my website is all about presenting a good image and the 4.6.5 themes are necessary.

My question is, what happens when more themes become available for 4.7 and I want to upgrade?

Will I have to install all the themes and modules for that version again?

I think the title of the topic says it all.

After I upgraded my drupal version, when I want to change something in the 'acces control' module, I immediately get logged out and when I log back in 'access denied 03/01/2006 - 17:47 admin/access denied access. Anonymous view details ' appears.

So I am admin, but I am not only denied access when I want to save changes in the settings, but I also get logged out.

It's quite frustrating, I also tried to upgrade the acces control module, but that didn't help. Does anyone recognise this problem ?
