Upgrading Drupal

I am attempting to create a Drupal instance by using CVS, and I keep getting an error when I do it.

I downloaded the core functionality without any problem by using this command:

cvs -z6 -d:pserver:anonymous:anonymous@cvs.drupa.org:/cvs/drupal co -d MySite -r DRUPAL-6-13 drupal

I created the database and got Drupal to connect to it without any problems.

I have downloaded the modules I needed using this type of command:

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous:anonymous@cvs.drupal.org:/cvs/drupal-contrib co -d ecommerce contributions/modules/ecommerce

There were no errors. But when I try to enable the ecommerce related functionality, I get this error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function ec_anon_policy_list() in /Users/roger/Sites/toys/modules/ecommerce/ec_anon/ec_anon.install on line 57

I saw an issue report about this error (http://drupal.org/node/353601), and the report stated that the problem was fixed.

I have an instance of Drupal that I created by downloading and unzipping and it has these same modules. It works fine.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can get around this error, or how I can figure out why it is happening?

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

NEW INFORMATION:

After upgrading I get "Fatal error: Only variables can be passed by reference in mysite/modules/admin_menu/admin_menu.inc on line 521" When trying to turn any of my modules back on. How can I fix this, my site is down.

Hi,

I just installed from Fantastico and it installed version 6.10 and I checked with Drupal and there is a new version 6.13.

I looked in admin panel and it says there is no other available upgrade for this version (6.10) . Can some one please explain. Thanks.

Okay, so I've just started creating a web site hosted on godaddy. A few days into it, I see that I need to upgrade to 6.13, so I go to my godaddy hosting file manager and attempt to create a backup (archive function in their interface) of my "sites" directory... but that directory is 33 MB, and they have a 20 MB limit on archives...

Creating a backup of the database was fine. But how are people with significantly sized content on their sites doing content backups on godaddy?

Hello all,

I'm a newbie, so I'm probably missing something. However, I have read the documentation and searched around a bit...

After installing 6.12 I was told to upgrade to 6.13. Downloaded, copied everything (backups aren't important at this point for me) pasted the "sites" folder back in the newly updated drupal-6.13 directory.

Hi,
I currently have a Drupal 5.1 website that I'm trying to upgrade. Whatever I'm doing isn't working, so I'm asking for some help and direction. In the past I have crashed my Drupal website during an upgrade. It took me a couple weeks to get it up and running again. So I very cautious and don't want to crash my website again. I hope to avoid having my website down again.

This is what I'm trying to do:

The Plan: To avoid having the website down for a time, this time I want to make a fully functional copy of the website before trying to upgrade. I'll upgrade the copy first to work out the bugs, while leaving the main website up and running. Once I get the copy website upgraded and running, then I'll redirect the domain to the copy so that I can upgrade the main website. When I have the main website upgraded and running, I'll transfer the domain name back to the main website.

What I did:
A: Created the Database: I went into phpMyAdmin and created a new database, attached a User name and password, and then (using Operations>"Copy Database To") copied the contents of the main database to the copy database.
