Upgrading Drupal

I go to the module page, choose to install a new module.

I browse my way to a downloaded module. Then I click install.

Then I arrive at this screen.

To continue, provide your server connection details
Connection method
FTP connection settings

I'm not sure what to put in any of the fields, and get an error.

But why do I end up on that page at all?

Hello there.

Can anybody give me a hint with this error that occurs when I add [/update.php] to my URL after an upgrade from 7.1.2 to 7.1.4? The rest of the site seems ok so far, but it's still 'in development' so hard to tell yet:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 71 bytes) in /mounted-storage/home2/sub002/sc18297-SNVA/www/[site_name]/includes/install.inc on line 104

All tips appreciated, thank-you.
Regards,

Hi folks,
I updated my drupal page yesterday from 7.12 to 7.14 and it got hacked over night.
They could create several files and folder in the drupal folder simulating a login page from an Bolivian Bank! (My site was taken down after complains came from Bolivia...)
I couldn't get back all the protocoll files (only the last 300 got saved :-( ) but I found those suspicious lines:
I have taken out my private page link and replaced it with [myloginname]

POST /sites/all/libraries/xml_Scripts.php?id=c0d3_3x3c&d=/home6/[myloginname]/public_html/subdomains/[subdomainname]/profiles/froms/home HTTP/1.1
POST /sites/all/libraries/xml_Scripts.php?id=mkdir&d=/home6/[myloginname]/public_html/subdomains/[subdomainname]/profiles HTTP/1.1
POST /sites/all/libraries/xml_Scripts.php?id=mkdir&d=/home6/[myloginname]/public_html/subdomains/[subdomainname]/profiles/froms HTTP/1.1
POST /sites/all/libraries/xml_Scripts.php?id=upload_fil3&d=/home6/[myloginname]/public_html/subdomains/[subdomainname]/profiles/froms/home HTTP/1.1

They also created this folder and files (and more):
GET /misc/Copyright/Teclado/www.corpbanca.cl/portal/index.php?STP=login HTTP/1.1
GET /modules/locale/Web/pichincha/jsp/login/login.jsp/index.htm HTTP/1.1

Just before they used the DirBuster from here https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Category:OWASP_DirBuster_Project

I could not upgrade my drupal 5.x website, so I am thinking of making an new drupal 7 site.

I only need to know how to customize the theme from 5.x to 7 and how to import all my post and pages to my new site.
is their any video tutorials that can help with that.

So I upgraded my install from 6 to 7.14. I followed the instructions, but now I have a bunch of modules that I cannot uninstall. I disabled the modules, but they were still in the modules folder. Big mistake. Now I cannot remove the modules from my drupal install. I removed them from the modules folder, but they are still showing up on my modules page.. but now there are red X's by the modules.

I have run update.php and nothing changes.

Anyone have some words of advice... ?? Any help will be very appreciated.

My host has asked me to use cPanel to do backups on my sites

Just wandering what other people thought of this?

or should I use the Backup and Migrate module

whats the difference?

thanks
