Howdy,

I am trying to upgrade my Drupal 6.20 installation to 6.22. However, after I run /update.php, it still shows up as 6.20 and tells me I should update to 6.22. I followed the instructions in the UPGRADE.txt file. The only folders I didn't replace were sites and files.

Another funny thing is, (call me an idiot if I am being one), in the sites/all/modules folder, there is a drupal-6.20 folder. I didn't think this was necessary, but when I try to replace it with a copy of Drupal-6.22, I get a white screen on any page I visit.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Turned modules off, back on ... the 'patient' way to upgrade. Did not report this until I ran cron.php (manually in this case).

I have not yet touched the sites directory (as suggested). There is no drupal-6.20 folder in my sites/all/modules. My guess is that someone dropped that folder there in your case and it shouldn't have been there in the first place.

Also, when I run update.php runs, it has a "0 of 0" indication during the upgrade.

Anyone else experience this?

I realized that in my hurry/early AM update ... I had copied my 6.20 backup files back into the site during the upgrade process. Might want to double-check and make sure that you didn't do that.

Go to your /modules/system/system.module file and look for 6.20 or 6.22

Hello,

I have the same experience here on one of my sites. Since I installed the last update, in admin/reports/updates/list there is an ongoning warning that I should install 6.22. I have done so several times but the message keeps appearing.
In sites/all/modules I also have a a drupal-6.20 folder. I tried removing this folder but then I get a fatal error. After restoring from backup the problems remain. My site is functioning normally apart from the question to download 6.22 again.

me too!
I use a ubercart profile but I don't think is ti the cause of the problem.
I look into the system.module i have line 11 define('VERSION', '6.22');
But always the asking sentence for update to 6.22.
the site is running not on all server : sometimes all pages are blank without error message, sometimes it's OK...

I have the same issue of the system not recognizing the update. Complete with the Drupal 6.22 folder in the sites/all/modules. Any insights would be appreciated.

Same thing here and it's driving me crazy. I've done enough updates that I like to think I know what I'm doing but for whatever reason after I update, run update.php, run cron, etc I'm still being told that there is a security update (6.22). I have done this numerous times, I usually do my updates at night I thought that maybe I missed something because I was tired. Nope, same outcome every time. I thought it was just me, obviously not. Any help/thoughts are appreciated!

This problem still exists. The update was performed via ftp with all non-core modules disabled and in maintenance mode. There is no drupal-6.20 folder in /sites/all/modules, no references to this folder in the System table. Also, /modules/system/system.module reports the version is 6.22. There are no related log entries, just the update warning.

I tried to follow the directions, but there is no "drupal-6.20" directory in sites/all/modules.

And no references to 6.20 paths in the System table of the DB.

I cannot reconcile my code base, which is obvioiusly 6.22 with the error messages and other problems that have to do with Drupal thinking it is running 6.19.

Was convinced I had found the answer, but it does not work.

Anyone got ANY idea what the fix is?

Same error in 6.22

I have also this error.

Following behaviour on my drupal test installation.

In time of occurence of the 6.22 error, my manually started cron job failed.

After disabling update module I could run cron with ease. (Information found here: Cron is stuck)

Seems to me the source of the error could be the update module.

Unfortunately I m a beginner so I can't offer further details.

Could that be that update module is checking for updates. But the last version is 6.22. Could it be that a query checking for updates is running forever so the server process times out?

Hi, same problem with version 6.24.

Updating of the new version was successfull. In the system status overview version 6.24 is shown but still updating to 6.24 is recommended (security update).

Also did database update as usual, but that did not help either
