Upgrading Drupal

I had patched 4.6.1 to 4.6.2. When I tried to apply the most recent patch, I get the following:

$ patch -p0 < ../xmlrpc-4.6.2.patch 
patching file xmlrpc.php
patching file includes/xmlrpc.inc
Hunk #1 FAILED at 1.
1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file includes/xmlrpc.inc.rej
patching file includes/xmlrpcs.inc

patching file modules/blogapi.module
Hunk #3 succeeded at 174 with fuzz 2.
Hunk #4 succeeded at 191 with fuzz 2.
patching file modules/drupal.module
patching file modules/ping.module

Can I just copy the includes/xmlrpc* files from the 4.6.3 installation over to my current installation?

Hi, I am not sure if I upgraded my site correctly. I was running drupal 4.6.0. I backed up all my databases and files. Then I downloaded the 4.6.2 package, unzipped it on my hard drive, and uploaded all of these files over the 4.6.0 files. I changed the settings.php file, uploaded it, then ran the update.php file. There were no errors, so I assume it worked. However, when I go to the main directory of my site, I get the following error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: drupal_add_link() in /home/letscon/public_html/drupal-4.6.0/modules/node.module on line 1609

I am utilizing the basic mail module. After sending out several emails, I noticed that the closing of each email grabs the author name and date. The author name gets linked to the author's profile.

I'd like to remove that link to the author profile, as well as modify the closing because right now it spits out unreadable characters. I've looked through the code but to no avail.

I'm using the mail module found here:

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello All,

Our development team is implementing a site based on DRUPAL (http://www.publicvoting.org) and because of some designer requirements we have to change parts in the forum, taxonomy, node, filestore2, etc... modules.

However, if we want to migrate to a newer version of the DRUPAL the changes could be easily lost. I was thinking of overriding the changed functions but it does not seem to work - PHP refuses to override functions...

What would be the best approach to make the extensions?

Hello,

I've just stared using drupal for a project I'm working on, its the first CMS that I've used that does eveything I need. However I'm unclear on a few things, I've been trying to install the 'bookmark' module but I have no idea about creating sql tables, my knowledge of php and sql is very limited.

Any tips?

Thanks

I have upgraded gallery from beta 3 to beta 4.
After the upgrade process I had few problems with my gallery when embeded into drupal

1) The side bar, appears with the gallery content
2) The gallery block, does not appear with the expected menu items

Looking at the code and the output I get from galley I can see that the information expected by
the drupal gallery module is not returened by gallery.

I have found few workarounds to make my gallery work but this should be changed in the gallery.module
