Upgrading Drupal

Hello World,

I have an error after migrating from Drupal 6.28 to Drupal 7.2.2.

I followed all migration steps from the UPGRADE.txt in the drupal 7.2.2 folder.

1- Updating modules and then disable.
2- Site in maintenance mode.
3- Change the theme to Garland
4- Remove all old core files and directories, except for the 'sites' directory and any custom files you added elsewhere
5- Run update.php (138 updates)

Hi all,

I had a long break from Drupal and web development and I'm now trying to get back into it as I have finally decided to upgrade my website.

I have done some initial research and I am a little bit unclear about the following (any quick heads up would be greatly appreciated!)

I'm looking for support using drush to upgrade from d6 to d7 using the drush site-update @ command.

The Issue (I think) is creating proper aliases for source and target site root and uri. I've reviewed READ.ME, the forums docs from acquia, various tutorials, etc. and tried various combinations without success.

The command "site-update @drupal7" aborts with Site alias not found: @drupal7.

My current aliases (residing in .drush/aliases.drushrc.php) are

Hello,

I'm finally upgrading an older site from drupal 6 to drupal 7. There are tons of CCK fields, the only one I'm having issues with is the single on/off checkbox. In d6, I had key|values defined, where the key wasn't always a binary number. For example I might have had something like: Yes|Yes as a key|value pair.

When I migrate these fields, they are migrating over as 0 or 1. It also obtains the correct labels. However, it only displays the values from the database, i.e. instead of displaying yes, it displays 1.

Hi I'm about to launch my drupal site, but i'm interested to know what happens to user accounts when upgrading drupal as I don't want to lose user accounts.

Do I need to back up the user accounts on the database? Or when upgrading are the user accounts not affected?

I have been working on replacing a single working site that is now D6x to D7x site.

The 7x drupal site = mydomain.com/capsule
Mysql > database = mydomain_data03 & user = mydomain_user3

The 6x drupal site = mydomain.com/capsules
Mysql > database = mydomain_data & user = mydomain_user

Mysql prefix for each site database = mydomain_

-----------------------------------------------------------------

These two sites are located on the same server in the core folder mydomain.com and the respective versions are:

http://mydomain.com/capsule = D7x

http://mydomain.com/capsules = D6x

The D6x site has been up now for several years and is the current working site.

The D7x site is up and working correctly for several weeks, and is accessed by removing the trailing "s" from the domain pointer of capsules. capsule"s"

The D7x site is a complete replacement for the D6x site, but all links and domain pointers are presently targeted to the D6x site -> http://mydomain.com/capsules
