I am doing a test upgrade from drupal 5.x to 6.x. I have upgraded and ran the update.php successfully. So far so good. On the status page drupal says that my sites/mysite.com directory is not writable. So I do chmod u+x mysite.com and verify that is writable.
However when I reload the status page it again says the directory is not writable. Strange thing is that somehow the write permission just assigned is now gone... I must be missing something... I use ubuntu 9.10 server, drupal 6.15.
Here I am, on Christmas break, a PHP newbie but with great FTP software. I've installed Drupal 6.14 at my new hosting service, bit by bit cut and pasted the theme mod details and site confirmation/site information bits. But, I'm dreading doing the back and forth cut & paste method for some 100 pages of blog posts, forum pages, book pages, etc. - many with attachments. Surely there's an easier way -- without destroying or corrupting the good upgrade-ness of Drupal 6.14.
Ideas? Procedures?
Thanks for the help and Merry Christmas! -- david
after my last attempt to upgrade to 6.15 (which leaded to a desaster) I was now able (lucky me!) to restore my 6.14 system so that I have another chance to get things done.
My problem is (as some of you may know) that I have a duplicate 6.14 folder within my /sites/all/modules folder.
Read: /sites/all/modules/drupal-6.14
The problem is now that I don't know how to get rid of this folder, because when I simply rename or delete it, any site call leads to this error message:
I've just upgraded to 6.15. The site looks fine, but when I successfully login and try to go to the admin page, I get a white screen. If I go to any other page, I get the following warning -
warning: call_user_func_array() [function.call-user-func-array]: First argument is expected to be a valid callback, 'system_main_admin_page' was given in /home/(username)/public_html/includes/menu.inc on line 348.
From my limited knowledge of Drupal, it looks like it is not recognising system_main_admin_page and so directs me to a blank page.
before i upgrade the drupal to 6.15, i can send email to other user using contact form and verification email works fine (for drupal 6.14)
but after i upgrade it to 6.15 the message "Unable to send e-mail. Please contact the site administrator if the problem persists error" appeared and i cant send email..
