I've just developed a Drupal site within a subfolder "drupal6". I've then moved it to the root and get the following error :

"Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/var/www/drupal6/sites/all/modules/filefield/field_file.inc' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear') in /var/www/drupal6/sites/all/modules/filefield/filefield.module on line 13"

I've cleared all cache tables and done a search on the entire database for "drupal6" (which is the sub folder) and have come up with no results, so am quite confused where this path is being stored.

I swear I answer this question once a week. There are other issues but here are a few:

#983324: Move to new domain, Page Not Found error on filefield links
#409884: a way to refresh filepaths stored in database?

Thanks for the suggestions quicksketch. I'm not entirely sure this is the same issue though. As far as I can tell the suggestions you have posted are mainly to do with the file upload path set in Drupal, eg the files folder.

The problem I have is the contributed modules folder.

I moved the entire site from a sub folder called 'drupal6' to the root and the filefield module is still looking in the sub folder for an include.

I'm at a total loss as to where this could be getting stored as a full database keyword search will not bring any results for the sub folder.

I even uninstalled the module, deleted the module. Cleared all Drupal cache. Re-installed in the correct location and filefield still persists to ask for the sub folder.

Have you found the solution to your problem?
I'm having the same issue here after moving Drupal from subdirectory to root.

I never did find a solution. I ended up leaving a copy of the modules that were causing the errors at the sub directory as the site had to go live.

If anyone's still having problems with this: the reason might be in APC (or any other opcode cache).

In my case clearing the cache has resolved the issue above.

I eventually deleted everything and did the migration from the start again. And this time it worked.

Thanks Aleksander,
The solution in #6 was the fix when I moved my site from a subdomain to the root and got the filefield error mentioned above. The first error I actually encountered was a similar "Fatal error: require_once" error, but the file it was looking for was dhtml_menu.theme.inc

Once the APC cache was cleared the error went away.
