[drupal-support] weblinks after upgrade : lost links

Paul,

You did backup your database before the upgrade, right? In that case, just dump that table in your old database with your preferred tool, such as PHPMYAdmin, then open the new database and empty the old table and re-enter the new data. If you actions corrupted the database (specifically that table) this issue should be solved. If it is still not working, it might mean the database structure of Drupal has changed somewhat. Did you use the upgrade utility?

Regards,

Kobus

Dear all,
 I did an upgrade yesterday and along with it upgraded weblinks too. But 
i am seeing a difference between my local test setup and online version. 
In the local weblinks directory, i lost the directory structure. This i 
can understand as there is a change in weblinks module design. But in my 
local setup i can still see the link associated with each weblink entry 
( I can still see the visit http://xyz.com link at the bottom of the node.)

But in the online version of weblinks, i dont see the link at the bottom 
of the weblink node. I checked the node content (by clicking on the edit 
link, after login) but the link field is blank. So my questions are:

01. Did i corrupt the database while upgrading the weblinks module?

02. How can I reload the old weblink content into the new database?

thanks,
Paul
