Update.php stuck on first screen, Drupal 6 won't upgrade on Lighttpd

This is a problem I can't seem to figure out.
I had everything working but I recently switched servers from a Debian VPS to another Debian VPS and everything is nearly identical but for some reason none of my Drupal 6 sites can run update.php beyond the initial page.

I am running lighttpd (now 1.4.21, I upgraded it to see if that could be a contributing factor). I was running the Debian Etch version of Php 5. 5.2.0etch8 but I upgraded that to 5.2.8 via dotdeb in order to see if that was a factor, but to no avail.

I thought it might just be a bad module in my drupal 6 /sites/all/modules but even removing all of them and a completely new installation has the same exact problem. So I'm pretty sure it's something in my server configuration but I can't figure out what or how to diagnose it further.

Drupal 6 works as far as I can tell, but I just noticed http://mysiteorg/index.php?q=admin/reports/updates is giving a blank screen (most of the time a memory error) but I altered the Php.ini memory limit to 192meg, and there are no extra modules or anything installed so I don't know what the error is.

Anyways, I'm just looking for some advice on how to backtrace or identify what could be causing this error.

How can I take nodes/files from drupal 5 to drupal 6 ?

Hi guys
maybe someone already made this post, but i look and could not find anything maybe i lookd on the wrong place.
but anyway I have a drupal 5 website a upload /download document but i want to migrate from drupal 5 to drupal 6. How can I transform my site to drupal 6 and still have my content/files ?
I don't use a lot of module for it...I am mostly interested in migration my content to Drupal 6

Thank you

Drupal.org to share its upgrading process

It would be great news, if drupal.org shares with us how they set their plans and tasks to upgrade their site to version 6
I mean we all want to upgrade our sites and drupal.org is a great example for us and we want to follow their successful steps.

Do you think guys that they will share it with us ?
I hope they do :)

Something I don't get about CVS

Hi fellows,

I've have been reading a lot of stuff on documentation about that issue but can't get it work the way I want.

MY GOAL : I just want to get the last update of all my favorite modules on my desktop.

This command works (But I get the HEAD revision, which is no good for production use.) :
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous:anonymous@cvs.drupal.org:/cvs/drupal-contrib checkout -d views -r HEAD contributions/modules/views

This command works (But I have to modify each cvs command for each my 40 modules) :
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous:anonymous@cvs.drupal.org:/cvs/drupal-contrib checkout -d views -r DRUPAL-6--2 contributions/modules/cck

This code fail (I see the folder correctly created on my Mac, then at the end of checkout the folder is deleted, weird) :
cvs -z6 -d:pserver:anonymous:anonymous@cvs.drupal.org:/cvs/drupal-contrib co -d views -r DRUPAL-6 contributions/modules/views

Would the MAIN parameter, instead of HEAD, give me automatically the last stable version of a module ?
Or do I have to get for EACH module the last TAG version ? (In this case what is the power of CVS in front of WGET for example if I need to browse the CVS server looking the last version tag for each module)

I must admit there is something I miss here and I may have reach the limit of my geek power (which is weak)

upgrading 6.2 to 6.9 error on update.php

New installation on Debian account at myhosting.com, MySQL 5.0.32-Debian_7etch6 running on mysql01 as mydomainname_ca@localhost
Drupal version 6.2, trying to upgrade to 6.9, or 6.10
I did the backup of the db and files, etc. After removing files, uploading the extracted 6.9 to the install directory mydomainname.ca\drupal, I tried to run update.php but only got an internal server error.

I did a reinstall of Drupal 6.2 and that is where I remain at the moment.
