I've been trying to upload my test site to my webhost (Hostmonster). The installation went smoothly - except for one key thing...add-on modules in my sites/all/modules directory do not appear in administer/modules on my live site - nor to any of the nodes supported by them (images, image galleries) work when I try to navigate through my site.
Installation/migration method:
Fantastico Delux install of Drupal 5.3 on my live domain
Then uploaded/unpacked my test 5.5 site from .tar to replace those files
Updated settings.php in sites/all/default to match my database directory
Dumped the initial 5.3 DB and replaced by importing my own 5.5 DB via PHPAdmin
Ran update.php
When I searched forums for this "modules missing on live site" topic, I found this post. http://drupal.org/node/127773 I tried updating my files.inc file per one suggestion, but it had no effect.
I've been developing my site for about 8 weeks - but am not a PHP or MySQL expert by any means - the coding stuff is beyond me (apart from finding bits of code and following directions).
That said, I can easily see that I'm running different versions of MySQL and PHP between my localhost and webserver. Are any experts able to advise? I do not have database creation permission on my webserver btw...
This is the profile on my HOSTED site:
Drupal 5.5
Configuration file Protected
Cron maintenance tasks Last run 30 min 12 sec ago
You can run cron manually.
Database schema Up to date
File system Writable (public download method)
MySQL database 4.1.22
PHP 4.4.7
Unicode library PHP Mbstring Extension
Web server Apache/1.3.39 (Unix) mod_fastcgi/2.4.2 mod_auth_passthrough/1.8 mod_log_bytes/1.2 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635.SR1.2 mod_ssl/2.8.30 OpenSSL/0.9.7a PHP-CGI/0.1b
And the profile on my TEST/DEV site:
Drupal 5.5
Configuration file Protected
Cron maintenance tasks Last run 5 days 20 hours ago
You can run cron manually.
Database schema Up to date

Any help or advice of how to resolve this in Hostmonster environment would be great - I do need my add-on modules to function or I cannot run my site. Thanks so much!

case sensitivity
Judging from the overwhelming response to my post, I can see many people are experiencing this problem..(jk).
Because I'm a big follow-upper - I will post what resolved this for me, in case anyone is operating in the same environment.
Resolved: Case sensitivity on my webhost (not on my localhost MAC).
Changing the modules folder from sites/all/Modules
to
sites/all/modules
fixed my woes.
Thank you
Hi mcri,
Thank you for being such a good follow-upper, this saved me after an hour and a half of frantic searching of drupal.org for the answer. I had this exact same problem with my 'modules' (or should i say 'Modules') folder which made me think i had lost all my contrib modules and settings on the live site. thought i would have to go through drupal with a clean install manually putting all my nodes/menus copy+paste blocks etc.
again big thanks
all the best
Simon
Wow!
Can't believe i spent about 10 hours trying to figure out where my contrib modules had gone... all that for a lil case sensitive issue!
You saved my day man!
Another thank you from another Simon! ;-)
