I'm moving from 6.6 to 6.8, and run update.php... First I get the usual "back up your stuff" message, and then I click continue and the browser asks me whether I want to open the file in Bluefish or save it to my desktop. Oh noes!!

I chmoded the file to a+x and it's still trying to download update.php instead of running it on the server.

Anyone know what's going wrong?

Backstory: I upgraded from Drupal 5.5 to 5.14.

Observation: When I go to create a node (or go back to edit it), the various new node composition "accordion" panels are not even clickable, much less functional. (I don't know with certainty that this feature is referred to as "accordion" panels, so if I've described them incorrectly, please feel free to correct me.)

Specifically:

- XML sitemap settings
- URL path settings
- Comment settings
- Menu settings
- File attachments
- Authoring information
- Publishing options

Interestingly, when I try to copy/paste that part of the page to here, I get this:

URL path settings
Optionally specify an alternative URL by which this node can be accessed. For example, type "about" when writing an about page. Use a relative path and don't add a trailing slash or the URL alias won't work.
Comment settings
Disabled
Read only
Read/Write
Menu settings
Title:
The name to display for this menu link.
Description:
The description displayed when hovering over a menu item.
Parent item:
Weight:
Optional. In the menu, the heavier items will sink and the lighter items will be positioned nearer the top.
File attachments
Changes made to the attachments are not permanent until you save this post. The first "listed" file will be included in RSS feeds.
Attach new file:
XML Sitemap settings

I have a site that we had some custom work on. The company extended the functionality of drupal and did a multi site set up, i think. We have one site now but plan to add more. Followed this video: http://learnbythedrop.com/drop/70 (which I have used before when i upgraded last time and it worked fine) and intended to upgrade to drupal 6.8 today. I have upgraded drupal before so I don't know why this is skrewing up. I followed the instructions on the video to the letter and now our site, complete with our custom theme is trashed. See here: http://beta.wimaxforum.org

The module and theme pages are white when i go to look at them or change things. I can't get my custom theme to work. I switched it to my custom theme and got locked out of the site at first. So I FTPed up to it and changed the name of my theme to make it default to garland.
