Upgrading Drupal

Hello
I upgrade site from 4.7 to 5.7 version and I have problem with user profiles.
When I am an administrator, I can open all user profiles, but when I am a register user I have problem with open other profiles, some profiles register user can view, other can't open and is error - site not exist.
Acces permision is enable for register user.

Where is problem?

Is there a howto or something similar how to do a core-update, eg. from 6.4 to 6.5 with drush?

Is it only "drush.php pm update"? This looks to simple for me compared doing it manually.

Dearest Colleagues,

I am currently running Drupal 5.10. I want to upgrade it to Drupal 6.4. Here are my observations. I would appreciate if some one could shed some light on my plight.

So here is the Procedure I follow:

1) Upgrade the Contrib Modules to the latest versions available.
All success until this point

content module
Update #1009
* ALTER TABLE {content_field_hardware_appliance_types} ADD INDEX (nid)
* ALTER TABLE {content_field_virtualization_product} ADD INDEX (nid)
* ALTER TABLE {content_field_interests} ADD INDEX (nid)
* ALTER TABLE {content_field_potential_purchase} ADD INDEX (nid)
* ALTER TABLE {content_field_vmware_va_audience_tax} ADD INDEX (nid)
* ALTER TABLE {content_field_vmware_va_dev_status_tax} ADD INDEX (nid)
* ALTER TABLE {content_field_vmware_va_solarea_tax} ADD INDEX (nid)
* ALTER TABLE {content_field_vmware_va_website_url} ADD INDEX (nid)
* ALTER TABLE {content_field_vmware_va_compress_size} ADD INDEX (nid)
* ALTER TABLE {content_field_vmware_va_alloc_mem} ADD INDEX (nid)
* ALTER TABLE {content_field_vmware_va_vmw_tools} ADD INDEX (nid)
* ALTER TABLE {content_field_vmware_va_os} ADD INDEX (nid)
* ALTER TABLE {content_field_vmware_va_short_desc} ADD INDEX (nid)
* ALTER TABLE {content_field_vmware_va_username} ADD INDEX (nid)

I was just upgrading drupal from 4.7 to 6.4 and seem to have hit problems.

Following the upgrade, I got the following message when viewing the site.

Warning: Unknown column 'serialized' in 'field list' query: SELECT data, created, headers, expire, serialized FROM cache WHERE cid = 'variables' in /home/hunter/public_html/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 128

I think it should be possitble to do an update from a terminal (ssh) without a browser.

How do I have to change the mysql-database to deactivate all modules except the core-modul? If this is not possible, how do I deactivate a modul? Which tables are used?

Same question for themes.

I would like to write a bash-script for a mass-uodate.

I decided to upgrade from 6.4 to 6.5. I followed all of the steps in the guide very carefully and everything worked absolutely fine. The site was working and I was able to put it online without any problems. That was UNTIL the post-installation step where it said to move/delete...

install.php
CHANGELOG.txt
INSTALL.txt
INSTALL.mysql.txt
INSTALL.pgsql.txt
LICENSE.txt
MAINTAINERS.txt
UPGRADE.txt

I deleted those files and the site dies. Now the site is down and I get this ghastly message...
