6.9 to 6.10 upgrade - I logged out before returning my site to "online"....... How do I get back in?

Hello,

This is embarrassing...

I successfully upgraded from 6.9 to 6.10 and made a stupid mistake at the end...

I have USER ID 1 access and logged out without returning my site to online...

I have no idea how to get back in as the page now show that the site is off-line and currently under maintenance...

www.globalmusicpromotion.com

There is no longer any log in window on the site...

Is there any URL I can type in my browser to get back in as USER ID 1?

Upgrading from 6.9 to 6.10

I just recently installed Drupal 6.9 and just a few short days later was met with a notice on my site regarding the release of 6.10. After downloading the update and reading the UPGRADE.txt file, I decided to attempt the update.

Upgrading multiple sites with a common code base

I am running 6.9 and want to upgrade to 6.10. The site setup works like this. I have Drupal 6.9 installed under a bin directory and the home directories of the three sites are each symlinked to that 6.9 directory. The sites use different themes and have different modules enabled, all of which has been working just fine (other than the white screen problem I just reported on the Post installation forum). I have been through the UPGRADE.txt for 6.10 and it is mostly clear, but I am a little fuzzy on how to proceed with this site setup. My guess is:

Content shown without header, footer, navigation.

Hi,

I have recently upgraded my site from 5.1 to 6.9.

When i visit a page i created recently when i was on 5.1 only the content is displayed. No header, footer, navigation etc.

Other nodes work fine apart from this one.

I cannot edit it as i ger a page not found error when i visit example.com/clean_url_name/edit.

Thanks,
Ben

Fatal error after upgrade - closed browser window before upgrade completed

Received the following error message during upgrade from Drupal 6.8 to 6.9:

Fatal error: Class 'views_handler_argument_numeric' not found in /usr/www/users/ibdevco/stmarksD/sites/all/modules/views/modules/node/views_handler_field_history_user_timestamp.inc on line 11

Steps taken to upgrade from Drupal 6.8 to 6.9:

1. backed up database and site

2. logged in as user id 1

3. placed site in off-line mode

4. using Garland so no need to switch themes

5. disabled all custom/contributed modules

6. removed all old files/dirs in install dir

7. unpacked new files in install dir

8. copy backed up files and sites dirs to install dir and .htaccess

9. verified configuration file (settings.php)

10. ran update.php

....then the fatal mistake, I closed the browser window (it was late at night) yes, I did not see this note in step 2 until I re-read the upgrade instructions today AFTER I received the error message. I logged back in today and...

11. ensured that all modules were compatible

12. re-enabled modules.....this is as far as I got. When I tried to run update.php again, I received the fatal error message above (that's when I re-read the instructions and realized the mistake I had made)

Is there any advice on whether I can recover from here? My options appear to be:
