Upgrading Drupal

I upgraded my fledgling drupal site from v6.6 to v6.9. After upgrading, the non-core modules are no longer available. When I investigated, I found the folder where the modules used to be (sites/all/modules) is now empty. This isn't really a problem for me as my site is only in its fledgling stages and I can re-install the modules easy enough.

As best I can tell, this didn't cause any problems. I'm just wondering if this will cause problems down the road? What do you all think? Thanks in advance. (the site is http://cbeasley.com)

I am new to Drupal and although I have had no problems updating or anything else I have read I should have placed modules in the sites/all directory. Is there a easy way to move them without screwing everything up and is it worth it?

Thanks in advance

Greetings,
Not sure if this is the right place to ask but cannot find anywhere better. I have a drupal 5 installation running several sites on subdomains that share user data and vocabluaries and taxonomy terms.

Most of it is done by adding a common prefix to the database array in the settings.php file, but to share term data I had to hack the names of the entries in the sequences to remove the prefix.

Anyway - I am looking at upgrading the site to Drupal 6, and I notice there is no sequence table, so am wondering how Drupal 6 keeps track of the sequences.

Hi all,

I have probably stumbled upon one of the stupidest things that can happen.
I started update late December 2008, got interrupted and resumed today.

However, As I was not logged on any more, after the update, I am unable to set the maintenance mode to off.
I simply cannot logon, because the site insists it is offline.

1. I did a search on the main directory and found the function drupal_site_offline() was called.
2. So I grepped for this function, but alas, I cannot find it.

Hi all,

I'm a Drupal noob, but I got my site running 6.6 with no problems. I have a few other modules added (Flickr, Image, Mailsave, Messaging, Poormanscron), and since I've never done it before, I'm afraid I'll ruin my site trying to upgrade.

Any advice? Can I upgrade directly to 6.9 from 6.6? Are there instructions in the 6.9 tar file? Is it worth trying?

Thanks,
Oy.

I have the book Pro Drupal Development for Drupal 5.That is why even now I am still using Drupal 5.7. I am about to deploy a new site and I am wondering if I should upgrade to atleast 6.x. Most importantly, I dont want theming to change as I have quite a few custom themes I dont want to change them. Also how different is development in Drupal 6 or 7 compared to 5? Should I upgrade? Any suggestions?
