Upgrading Drupal

Just wondering if anyone's upgraded to 6.4 yet...I am going to, but wanted to know if there's been problems.

I'm a newbie, and it was a bit of a hassle simply installing 6.3 in the first place (I knew practically nothing about servers, and nothing at all about databases), but now I have to upgrade and the "upgrade.txt" instructions have me a little puzzled: am I supposed to disable all the modules I can disable? The instructions say to disable all custom modules and contribs...does that mean every module which can be unchecked (disabled), or only non-core modules??

I've been using Drupal 5.x for about a year and a half. I publish a webcomic (http://ubersoft.net) and most of my contact makes heavy use of CCK. My comic nodes are completely dependent on CCK and CCK Imagefield.

My problem: I want to upgrade to Drupal 6. To that end, I did the following:

Here's a list of files changed by the latest Drupal upgrades. We use this so we don't have to replace the entire Drupal installation, as usually only a few specific files have actually changed.

When I upgraded my site to 5.10 from 5.9, I get a message that says "Unsupported Database Type". With 5.9, I can use either mysql or mysqli without complaint, but neither seems to work with 5.10.

My mysql version shows up as 5.0.27

A strange corollary problem is that this happens to the site run out of sites/default, but not the one run from sites/xxx.yy

Hi all,

I have a drupal site that is currently sitting way back at 5.1. I am wondering if the best practice to update the site is first to take it up to say 5.9 or jump straight in to 6.3 (or 6.4 which I notice is just out today).

I had a go at an upgrade on my test site to 5.9 which worked fine (other than a very common problem with image module that I found a fix for)

what is generally considered the best way to go about an upgrade, do you need to do all the point upgrades first - is this a less error prone way of doing things?

TIA,
Renaee.

Hello i just recently tried to upgrade from 5.7 to 6.3

I though i had turned off all my modules only core ones were left. Upgrade went smoothly but now when i try to access my site i am getting the following error.

But when logged in i am receiving the following error.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function db_num_rows() in /home/ezylinks/public_html/includes/common.inc(1537) : eval()'d code on line 8
