adammaloneThis is caused by a specific set of circumstances. I was able to replicate with the following:
The reason for this is that Drupal will not load .module files of disable modules. It can be remedied with the patch I am attaching.
Comment #3
matt.rad CreditAttribution: matt.rad commentedHad the same issue, but resolved it by enabling panels and then running the database update.

mfby2k CreditAttribution: mfby2k commentedThanks typhonius for the patch but the error is fixed by using matt.rad method #3.

dpfitzsi CreditAttribution: dpfitzsi commentedThis breaks upgrades from Drupal 6 where all contrib modules have been disabled to run update.php as per Drupal's upgrading instructions. Yes, enables panels is a workaround, but it should be possible to run core updates when all contrib modules are disabled. Correct?
+1 for the patch
Comment #6
dpfitzsi CreditAttribution: dpfitzsi commentedAfter testing this patch you will now get this error when upgrading a site:
Error: Call to undefined function ctools_include() because ctools is required by panels.module.
Comment #7
adammalone@dpfitzsi, thanks for testing this. How about we also load the ctools module. I'm am however wary of making assumptions that the Drupal install has ctools present.
Comment #8
dpfitzsi CreditAttribution: dpfitzsi commented@typhonius I've tried the ctools line during upgrading a site (from Drupal 6), and the patch would still fail for this case. I had to link back to 3.3 to make upgrades work.
Comment #9
ajayg CreditAttribution: ajayg commentedMarking this critical as this fails any upgrade from 6.x. Enabling panels did not work as was getting a different error. But the patch above worked
Without the patch I was going in a loop. Could not upgrade other modules when panel is disabled and could not upgrade panel module.
Comment #10
pbirk CreditAttribution: pbirk commentedI used the patch in #2 for an upgrade from 6.x. I'm using drush, and it indicated the patch ran successfully but also dumped quite a few warnings:
Invalid argument supplied for foreach() export.inc:818 [warning]
Invalid argument supplied for foreach() export.inc:818 [warning]
...repeated many times...
Invalid argument supplied for foreach() panels.module:904 [warning]
Invalid argument supplied for foreach() plugins.inc:100 [warning]
...repeated many times...
Performed update: panels_update_7302 [ok]
I couldn't identify any major problems after applying the upgrade like this, but the warnings still bothered me because I am scripting an upgrade for a site that uses Panels pretty extensively. So, I found that this approach runs the upgrades without errors (or patches):
Disable all modules and upgrade to 7.x as usual
Download ctools 7.x and run drush updb, then drush cc all
Enable ctools
Download Panels 7.x-3.3 and run drush updb, then drush cc all
Enable panels
Download Panels 7.x-3.4 and run drush updb, then drush cc all
I haven't tried testing without clearing the cache so much - it's entirely possible that step is overkill. I haven't noted any problems yet, but I still have a lot of work left on this upgrade so I'll update this if I run across anything.
Comment #11
japerryThis is a good check to do. It may not fix all of the upgrade issues, but it should fix at least this one. Committed.
