uploaded Drupal 6 here and I can't get past the database part, I have created a database, user, password, I put them all in the right places but can't get past it, I also made the file CHMOD 777
I have a site built with Drupal 6.20 hosted by OVH. I had a problem in December because the php versio was on 5 in the .htaccess and I put it on 5.3 (I was told that beyond it is not supported by Drupal 6) and then the site worked correctly.
Since 3 months I have not changed or even accessed the site which was working perfectly but in recent days, it displays "Error 500".
I'm approaching week 10 of trying to get a relatively simple D6 site to upgrade to D8. The migrate tools, either through drush or through the web UI appear to get us nowhere - content is never moved, users are moved, but the information seems incorrect and it appears permissions are changed - as well as user1 from the new site being overwritten with user1 from the old site, making admin access somewhat wonkey.
I'm wondering if a traditional in-place upgrade is even an option. It seems that it can't be as bad, let alone worse, than using the upgrade tools...
