Custom modules no longer display after upgrade

Hello,

I've had a problem with a module I've created since I upgraded and can't work out how to fix it. I hope someone can help.

Essentially, I created a small module which I managed to run on a drupal site running 6.18 core.

Now I've upgraded the core to 6.20 I can no longer see it in the module list to activate.

That said, I've uploaded it to another site running 6.20 and it does appear.

I've also tried renaming the module and the various references to this name but it doesn't show.

I'm slightly baffled and wonder if anyone can help me out.

Custom theme is not appearing in the themes page after updating from V5 to V6

Hi all,

I have been asked to update the version of a website that was on Drupal 5. I have created a test site, and updated it to 6.2.

The site uses a custom theme and I have copied the theme to the theme folder on the server but when I look at the Themes page in the admin panel, the custom theme is not appearing in the list.

When I look at the contents of the folders for the other themes, they all have a themename.info file and there is no such file in the custom theme that I am wanting to use.

Drupal 7 Upgrade gone wrong

Upgrade from Drupal 6 to 7 failed. Due to lack of PDO (PHP Data Objects).
However, after PDO was installed, Drupal still does not work.
Why does Drupal block my IP address? How can it be fixed?

PDOException: SQLSTATE[42S02]: Base table or view not found: 1146 Table 'pucho_drpl.blocked_ips' doesn't exist: SELECT 1 FROM {blocked_ips} WHERE ip = :ip; Array ( [:ip] => 1xx.2xx.1xx.1xx ) in drupal_is_denied() (line 1779 of /drupal/includes/bootstrap.inc).

Ckeditor and admin bar

I have installed and enabled CKeditor on a drupal site that I am helping somebody with, but I can't find the link to the CKeditor only the CKeditor settings. I believe I can get it on the admin bar if installed and enabled. But is it available anywhere else when viewed through the administration pages of the website itself?

Upgrade went wrong! Need help ASAP!!

Hi There I have a huge problem and need help ASAP!!

I have taken over my Mum's eCommerce website over a year ago. It is fairly old with Drupal 5x running and the modules hadn't been updated since it's been in my hands.

I was having problems with FCKeditor, it wasn't showing the correct colour and fonts I had selected, when I was creating a new page and styling text, etc. So I googled it and found that FCKeditor was no longer supported and their is a new one called CCKeditor. So I tried installing this and it did not work.

In the meantime on the modules page majority of the modules were highlighted red, saying it was no longer supported, it needed upgrading or the security needed upgrading. So I selected each one, downloaded the latest versions and uploaded them, overwriting the old modules. I ran the php file to get everything running. Then I received pages upon pages of error messages, at one stage the website crashed. One error message was about imagecache and another image module. So I removed these hoping to clear the error messages on the module page but it did not work, I have now lost all the images in the shopping cart because of this.

I have no idea how to fix this and I probably should of looked into the upgrading before going ahead and doing it. It must be a lot more to it then I first thought.

View flash in CKEditor

Hi all.
I use CKEditor module along for editing my documents. Sometimes I need to embed flash into document. I use "flash insert" button in toolbox to select swf file and insert it to the document. However during editing (inside of the editor) I cannot see inserted flash. I see only square with red Flash label but I need to see whole movie.
How can I do it?

Thanks in advance.
