I am running a local subnet Ubuntu web server. Tried to upgrade to 6.13 from 6.10. I clearly did something wrong.

Getting a bunch of these:

warning: unlink(sites/default/files/js/b95a1da8025206dbd0a8a8b7c34a86af.js) [function.unlink]: Permission denied in /var/www/includes/file.inc on line 435. when doing update.

and more of these:

The selected file /tmp/file9QD2Te could not be uploaded, because the destination sites/default/files/css/f1dc37f1278d631b348375c45fde2109.css is not properly configured.

when going to the Modules page.

I have tried to reset permissions to 755, but they do not stick. Is this a Linux issue?

I also have no theme display except for Garland on the Update page.

Also misplaced the database name to do the reinstall. I have the backup and the old files, which files contain the old installation settings?

Try clearing the cache before doing anything drastic. www.yourdomain.com/admin/settings/performance

If you need to find your settings for the Db they'll be in

/sites/default/settings.php

Those long file names that you're seeing are the aggregated JS and CSS files. It might help to turn off CSS Optimization and JS Optimization on the Performance Settings page (at the path in the comment above).

You can always find the database name, etc. in your /sites/default/settings.php file.
