I just ran security upgrades on two sites. First site, no problem, only printer friendly pages module was enabled. Second site, update.php ran forever, was stuck on the screen ""Starting updates." I killed the update process, disabled and uninstalled the Send by email module, while leaving Printer Friendly Pages enabled, and update ran fine.

Thanks,
AD

Was this running on a PostgreSQL database?

I run into the same issue. It trashed the database. Solution - database restore and replace the 1.11 version wit the old 1.10.

I'm running Drupal 6.19 with Mysql 5.0.51a (current Version under Debian Lenny)

How many nodes do you have on your sites?

The update function will write a configuration record for each node, so conceivably it could exceed the PHP timeout. I need to take a look at ways of preventing that.

I'm having the same issue. I have about 90,000 nodes on my site. Should I increase the PHP timeout to the longest possible and update again?

Can you please download the latest dev and try to run the database update function again?

I've added some code that should heavily reduce the number of needed updates.
