Upgrading Drupal

I need to know how exactly to upload the latest 6.5.

I tried to upload it to my host address, but got an error message that said:

For security reasons, only files of type 'asp aspx bas cfm cgi css csv doc dwf gif gz htm html ico inc jpeg jpg js mdb pdf php php3 php4 php5 pl pm png ppt py shtm shtml sql swf tar txt wav wmv xls xml zip' can be uploaded.

However, the file is a gz file, and will not upload.

I am not a technical person, and I thank you for your patience in advance.

Hi to all...

After the upgrading to Drupal 6.5 (from 6.4) and the new version of Creative Commons Lite...

This Error appear, blocking my site:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function image_get_info() in /www/netsons.org/dret/web/modules/image/image.module on line 753

I had to remove Image module to make my site turn back online again...

I can report the message Drupal gave me after performing of upgrade.php:

I've been using and doing upgrades from Drupal 5.1 through 5.10 for a site with no real issues.
Each time I would copy my database to a new one and point the settings.php to the new db, so as to leave the original in tact.
I'm using MySQL 4.1.22.

I thought I'd try a new install of 6.4 last night and try it out. Install went fine.
Then of course less than 12 hours later, 6.5 is out.
Well no biggy. I haven't installed any modules or anything special.

But upon trying to do my normal db copy, everything goes fine until I hit the 'users' table, where I get this error:

INSERT INTO `Drupal6_5`.`users`
SELECT *
FROM `Drupal6_4`.`users`

MySQL said:
#1062 - Duplicate entry '1' for key 1

At that point it never got to the remaining tables, so I don't know if it's the only table with the issue.

I can see what's happening, and why it wasn't doing it on my 5.x db's.

Looking at both the 6.4 and 6.5 'user' tables, both have the 'uid' set as "auto increment".
This is a clean 6.4 install, and in addition to the user '1' admin account, I made one other user account, which it added with no problem.
Looking at the contents of the 6.4 users table, I see the following entries:

(uid, name)
0, (blank)
1, AdminUser
3, OtherUser

I don't know if the uid 0 was there as soon as I finished the new install or after I added a second user.

I'm trying to upgrade Drupal from latest 5.x to 6.x. Only have one 3rd party module, Image. Core updates just fine, only UTF8 problems which I can fix later but the Image module fails to update. Anyone have any experience? Fails with SQL errors. Had to revert site and don't have the specific erros at the moment.

Cheerz!

hi guys,

I just switched to drupal 6.x

By 5.x I used to get menu-childs by

$children = isset($menu['visible'][$mid]['children']) ? $menu['visible'][$mid]['children'] : NULL;

In 6.x I couldn't find a solution to get childs by mlid. I need this because I'm building my navigation from an array.

I tried

$fullMenue= menu_tree_all_data('primary-links');

and get

oh guru's of drupal,

i just updated my site from drupal 5.7 to drupal 6.4. on my development server it working. when i uploaded it to my production server i am now getting the following error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function user_is_anonymous() in /var/www/html/wc/wccif.com/includes/menu.inc on line 2414

i thought it might be a permission issue, but i can't figure out what file or folder has the wrong permissions. the only third party module i have installed is civicrm. i'm completely stumped.
