I have made a site with a module folder within site/all/modules called managingnews-1.0-beta6 . Unfortunately I did not notice that this module had Drupal core modules in it. Now that I have designed the site and I noticed this, I need to remove the modules so Durpal can be updated. I am down to the last three ( Block, Node, and System ) modules that I can not remove. As soon as I remove them the back end CMS disappears. I need help.

I have placed them in module folder and only the system module does not work now. I have done the error reporting and I get the following error

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'sites/all/modules/managingnews-1.0-beta6/modules/system/system.admin.inc' (include_path='.:') in /var/www/vhosts/terracad.com/httpdocs/includes/menu.inc on line 346

It is still looking for that managingnews... folder

clear your site cache and navigate to admin/build/modules.

(I appreciate you working on this issue)

I cleared the cache and then moved the system module to the modules folder and again the same error came up. It does not even allow me then to clear the cache using

?q=admin_menu/flush-cache&destination=admin%2Fbuild%2Fmodules

or

?q=admin_menu/flush-cache

We need to remove the system module from sites/all/... and place it in the modules/
if still error coming then you need to look for system table and find the path of system.module and change it to modules/... via phpmyadmin.

Thanks. I did find it and removed the reference to that module. I discovered that when something like this happens I have to remove one module at a time and clear the cache until it is the system module's turn. Then and maybe the only way would be to change the module location in the system table of the database.

This is my first Drupal site www.terracad.com

Thans you Sagar
