Please accept my apologies if this item has been dealt with before - but I can't seem to find any referrence to it.

This morning i have upgraded to the Stable Version 6 package from the last RC4 version. However, part way through the upadte scritp i recieve this message:

system module can not be updated. Its schema version is 119. Updates up to and including 1021 have been removed in this release. In order to update system module, you will first need to upgrade to the last version in which these updates were available.

I'll freely admit, I'm fairly new to this type of software, but its got me confused.

I have tried the logical (I think!!) - I have checked the downloaded files (they are the latest and have been re-downloaded). I have deleted the modules folder. Closed down, re-connected and then replaced the folder, all to no avail.

Any assistnace would be much appreciated

Hi,

I have the exact same error when trying to upgrade to 6.2.

The site appears to be running OK at the moment (I still have it down for maintenance). I can access my blog and forums, etc. I have not tried to create new content though.

When I navigate to the "Administer" page, an unfriendly red box greets me near the top of the page stating: "One or more problems were detected with your Drupal installation. Check the status report for more information." "status report" is a hyperlink. I click on it and the "Database updates" section is highlighted in red, claiming to be "out of date". The text below the title states: "Some modules have database schema updates to install. You should run the database update script immediately." "database update script" is a hyper link, I click it and try to update my drupal database. I get the same message as smudger59kes.

Anyone experience this problem and fix it? Is my site functional or is a catastrophic error in the near future? ;)

==Edit: I upgraded from Drupal5.5 to Drupal6.2, in case that matters==

I received a similar message.

system module can not be updated. Its schema version is 140. Updates up to and including 1021 have been removed in this release. In order to update system module, you will first need to upgrade to the last version in which these updates were available.

Any ideas on a fix?

Run an upgrade to the latest Drupal 5 first and then you'll be able to run the Drupal 6 upgrade :)

I got the same warning, execept that it said that the schema version was 168. I have now idea where this 168 came from. I looked to the database tables, and I found a table system, which seemed related.

I issued this SQL query:

select name, schema_version from system where name='system';

and I got schema version 1022, which is above the mentioned 1021. So I just ignored the warning, and everything seems to work. Except that the status report keeps saying I have to run the database upgrade script, and the database upgrade script keeps showing the same warning about version 168.

I was working on the wrong database.
