Upgrade frmo 6.17 to 7.22 messed up my web site
Hi, I have a web site, hosted at godaddycom that I am maintening for a colleague. We recently receive an advise saying we should upgrade to the latest version of Drupal. I tried yesterday, using the automatic procedure provided by the web hosting company, but it messed up my web site. First error was about unexisting function file_directory_path in sites/all/theme/sky/template.php I did replace any occurence of file_directory_path by file_default_scheme in any file I could find. And now my site display "site under construction". What can I do next? Thanks in advance, Olivier --

Olivier, It's not a straightforward upgrade from a version 6x to 7.x; that's a major upgrade. You have to first find out which modules are compatible with version 7.x, what your theme is and whether it's compatible, etc. There is a lot of preparatory work to do BEFORE any upgrade. This will give you lots of very good information <https://www.drupal.org/upgrade>. You can ask GoDaddy to restore to the version before the upgrade, they do have backups; then read the documentation and figure out what needs to be done before any upgrade is done.

Unless yours is a very simple site you are unlikely to succeed with a simple upgrade. You have to use migrate to a real chance at success. For example after an update upgrade most of your views will be broken and need hand repair. Organic groups are totally messed up. Some contrib modules have no equivalent or you need to use a different module for similar function. On Thu, Aug 14, 2014 at 4:58 AM, Olivier Nicole <Olivier.Nicole@cs.ait.ac.th

Yes that will be better and in future if you want to upgrade your website then always create clone of the website and work on that :-). On Thu, Aug 14, 2014 at 7:07 PM, Olivier Nicole <Olivier.Nicole@cs.ait.ac.th

First error was about unexisting function file_directory_path in sites/all/theme/sky/template.php
First big clue is right there. Look at the project page for the Sky theme: ---- The Drupal 7.x-2.x version is a complete rewrite. There is no officially supported upgrade path other than removing the old theme and enabling the new one - sorry but they are just so different there is no point even trying. --- https://www.drupal.org/project/sky Sky now uses Adaptivetheme as its base theme, so you need to have that installed also. My suggestion is to restore back to your previous version, then download and install this module: https://www.drupal.org/project/upgrade_status It will give you an overview of what modules you have and what the upgrade path to 7.x is. Automatic updaters supplied by hosting companies don't check this kind of stuff. They just do a generic update, ignoring the actual recommended procedure by the software and almost always end up in disaster.

First of all, thank you all for your support.
From the repplies I got, I understand that the "click here to upgrade" solution offered by the web hosting company could only mess-up the things.
For the moment I reverted to the old version and will be looking at doing the upgrade the right way. Thank you again, Olivier
First error was about unexisting function file_directory_path in sites/all/theme/sky/template.php
First big clue is right there. Look at the project page for the Sky theme: ---- The Drupal 7.x-2.x version is a complete rewrite. There is no officially supported upgrade path other than removing the old theme and enabling the new one - sorry but they are just so different there is no point even trying. --- https://www.drupal.org/project/sky
Sky now uses Adaptivetheme as its base theme, so you need to have that installed also.
My suggestion is to restore back to your previous version, then download and install this module:
https://www.drupal.org/project/upgrade_status
It will give you an overview of what modules you have and what the upgrade path to 7.x is. Automatic updaters supplied by hosting companies don't check this kind of stuff. They just do a generic update, ignoring the actual recommended procedure by the software and almost always end up in disaster.

Hi,
I have a web site, hosted at godaddycom that I am maintening for a colleague.
We recently receive an advise saying we should upgrade to the latest version of Drupal.
I tried yesterday, using the automatic procedure provided by the web hosting company, but it messed up my web site.

I did replace any occurence of file_directory_path by file_default_scheme in any file I could find. And now my site display "site under construction".
What can I do next?
Thanks in advance,
Olivier
