I'm running some upgrade tests on my local machine and upgrading D5 to D6 went very smooth. Now time for module upgrades. I started with views BUT when I deleted the old module views folder with the new D6 ported views folder, ALL of my views are gone! I was expecting all views to stay as is. Any ideas?

Yes that is fine, you will have to go to admin/build/views/tools/convert and convert the ones you need to views D6.

I'm not going from D5 to D6, but I upgrading Views from 6.x-2.1 -> 6.x-2.2 and it doesn't matter if I delete the entire views directory and copy the new version over, Drupal doesn't seem to see the new version. I've tried disabling and enabling the module, but that still doesn't change anything. I've run the www.example.com/update.php and that doesn't find anything that needs to be updated.

This isn't only happening with the Views module, but also with the ImageCache and the ImageField. What's strange is the ImageAPI had to be updated as well, but once I copied the files, everything seemed to be fine. This doesn't make sense!

Thank you in advance...
