This forum is for questions about upgrading an existing Drupal site. Don't forget to read the UPGRADE.txt file that comes with every Drupal download.

Yay. I killed my site.

After much searching I still can't get my site back.

I was upgrading from 6.13 to 6.14 and I accidentally had the 6.14 folder in my site/modules folder when I ran update.php. This added all kinds of 'drupal-6.14/modules/' to my database. I'm assuming this was my problem.

Here's the original error message I received when I tried to update:

Drupal Install from Hell

What I'm dealing with is what could be best described as a botched CMS install. I can't think of any other way to say it. We've basically got a nightmare, but we are stuck with it for awhile (and management is starting to freak a bit). Not only are things disorganized, but we also have random errors that pop up.

One more views 2 issue I'm stumped on

I have a view that has two fields in it. One of the fields is the path to an image. When I run the Live Preview in the view's admin section it spits out the image path correctly:

Nid: 39
Image: sites/default/files/brand/brand_pepsi.gif
Nid: 25
Image: sites/default/files/brand/brand_dunkin.gif

When I try to render the view on the site, the nid appears correctly, but the filepath does not. I know I could load the noad
based on the nid, but would like to avoid doing that if I can. Here's the code:

Upgrading from Drupal 5 to Drupal 6 Views - Argument Question

Hi,

The drupal 5 version of our website has a view that I believe pulls only promoted items if the "promoted to front page" argument is
passed to it, otherwise it pulls all values:

Drupal 5: Argument Type = Node:FrontPage Default: Display All Values

Weblinks 2.3 and minimal CSS

I recently upgraded my Web Links module to v2.3 after being prompted to because the old version was no longer supported (whether that meant by my actual Drupal install - which I had upgraded to 6.14 - or by the maintainers, I'm not sure; this terminology should be clarified). I discovered that my web links blocks were no longer consistent in style with my other blocks. This seems to be true with whatever theme I choose, but I'm using Garland.

Appropriate Location for Updates

When making updates in Drupal, it wants me to do the following:

4.Install your new files in the appropriate location.

How do I know where this location is?
