I'm trying to upgrade my 5.10 site to 6.6, but am encountering lots of errors...

When I use the 5.10 database in a brand-new 6.6. installation, I get a white screen when trying to access update.php, or a whole bunch or errors when trying to access the homepage.

When I copy the sites directory from 5.10 to 6.6 with the old database, I get errors no matter what page I try to access.

Does anyone know what the problem might be just from my description (i.e. is it a common problem with a known solution), or do I have to post the actual errors?

Thanks!

I'm also having alot of problem with upgrading to 6.6 , but i think you have to start by updating to 5.12, then upgrading to 6.6. ( that's in a manual somewhere).

I upgraded the old site to 5.12, then tried upgrading to 6.6 but it still didn't work...
I unzipped the drupal-6.6 package to the server, copied the files and sites folders from the old site to this new folder, then refreshed the site to get these errors:
