I finished an upgrade 4.6.4 to 4.7 on a test site at:
http://www.shreemaa.org/drupal47/admin

the one problem I see is that the 4.7 site is pointing to nodes in the old 4.6.4 site at http://www.shreemaa.org/drupal.

I've renamed the 4.7 mysql database to drupal47 and stated this in settings.php
is this right that the new site should point to nodes in the 4.6.4 mysql database?

anyone?

thanks!

You haven't upgraded to 4.7. array2object() is in 4.6. So I suggest you're still running parts of 4.6 in your drupal47 directory.

are there any upgrade procedures for 4.6 to 4.7 ??

I guess I don't understand where I went wrong with the upgrade.
http://www.shreemaa.org/drupal47 is a broken upgrade test site.

I unpacked 4.7 into a test site.
Upload the backed-up Drupal files to the test-site folder on my server.
Change settings.php.
mysqldump existing dbs to test-site dbs.

did I miss a step?

I really need some guidance with this upgrade being new even to 4.6.4

thanks!

Watching eagerly as I'm about to upgrade from 4.6.5 to 4.7.0 beta 4.

there doesn't appear to be much 4.7 support yet.
my 4.7 test site is broken.

http://www.shreemaa.org/drupal47

the blocks never came back which means my custom theme may not be compatible with 4.7

I think you forgot to run update.php . Also, 4.6 modules rarely work for 4.7 and themes need to be adapted to 4.7's new regions.

Instead of 0 and 1, regions are now 'left', 'right', 'header' and 'footer'.
