1.4 -> 1.8 DB Dump Question
July 30, 2007, 11:17:39 am
Says here http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Upgrading+Drupal+Sites+from+v1.7+to+v1.8#UpgradingDrupalSitesfromv1.7tov1.8-DumpandReloadDatabasetoEnsureDBStructureisCurrent

that I should dump my data, rebuild the tables and then reinsert the data. But what if I don't have a separate DB for CiviCRM? Mine's the same as my regular Drupal DB. This is problematic, no?

I suppose I could just manually create DROP TABLE commands for all Drupal tables.

But now I am having a bigger problem. I ran the update SQL and then I remove my 1.4 code and replace it with 1.8 code and I get this:

Fatal error: Class 'CRM_Core_Permission' not found in E:\ApacheRoot\mysite\modules\civicrm\CRM\Core\Block.php on line 99

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Did you do the upgrade scripts 1.4 > 1.5 > 1.6 > 1.7 >1.8 ?

Plus you did backup the tables before you started. Can't help on the specif error...

Yes.

I presume you're joking. It would be foolhardy to try this upgrade on a live site. I am working on my local workstation with a copy of the site to see if I can get the upgrade to work.

Fred, apologies for stating the obvious. Unless anyone comes up with a fix (I don't have any answers) you could try dropping the whole db (or renaming it) and reloading a new db and see if the error still exists. Assuming it does then the error is in the db data. Hope this helps and is not just banality.

OK, that is a good idea. THanks.

Fred - Can you check if the following file exists in your upgraded install:
E:\ApacheRoot\mysite\modules\civicrm\CRM\Core\Permission.php

If not, then it would seem that there was a problem untarring the 1.8 files - and that the installed codebase is incomplete. If the file is present, then repost with more specifics - the CiviCRM package file you downloaded? the version of php your server is running? what URL you are requested when you get that error?

Yes, I have that file. I go to http://beitnatan.o/?q=admin/modules and I get this error. I am using PHP 5 and MySQL 5. The Drupal we have, however, is Drupal 4.7.2, 2006-06-01.

CiviCRM is civicrm-1.8.beta.10594-drupal-php5.tar.gz

Thanks.

Seems like I am doing something wrong here (or my Drupal version is no good) because I replaced the code of 1.8 with 1.7 and now I get this:

Fatal error: Class 'CRM_Core_Permission' not found in E:\ApacheRoot\mysite\modules\civicrm\CRM\Core\Block.php on line 460

Fred - It looks like the functions which re-create the menus (in CRM/Core/Menu.php) are not getting called - and therefore the require_once which they include for CRM/Core/Permission.php isn't happening. Did you do steps 7 and 8 in the upgrade instructions (delete from drupal sessions table and "Reload Drupal Modules and Reset Drupal Menus"?

If you've deleted all records for drupal sessions table - you might try doing step 8 in reverse order (since it looks like you're getting the error when you go to Administer Modules) - i.e. try resetting drupal's menus first.

If none of that works (with the 1.8 codebase) - then the next thing I'd probably try is temporarily adding the following line to Block.php at line 44:
Code: [Select]
            require_once 'CRM/Core/Permission.php';

I suspect other errors will show up - but they might give us better clues on why your install is behaving oddly.

Reset Drupal Menus? I don't even see a way to do that in Drupal 4.7.

Truth is that the only thing on this Drupal install is CiviCRM anyway so I am trying now to start with Drupal 5.2 and CiviCRM 1.8 and see if I can transfer my existing CiviCRM data. So far it's 90% working. Some issues with unicode characters (half of my contact table is in Hebrew) but I think I can fix that.

Thanks.

You should be able to do that in much the same way as in Drupal 5, namely by going to the menu admin and saving it.

That’s always a good (better, even) idea. :)

I'm having the same problem, only while upgrading from 1.7 to 1.8-stable.
Fatal error: Class 'CRM_Core_Permission' not found in /usr/share/drupal-4.7.7/sites/default/modules/civicrm/CRM/Core/Block.php on line 99

I've followed the installation steps to the letter.  I also tried inserting the require_once code on line 44 of Block.php, as above.  It generated an "unexpected require_once" error.

Did Fred find a way to resolve his issue?

Oh, forgot to mention, I'm using Drupal 4.7.  Upgrading Drupal would be difficult because of other modules that require 4.7 only.

I suspect this might be a bug with CiviCRM and Drupal 4.7. We don't really test CiviCRM versions on Drupal 4.7 (not enough resources to do so)

I suspect you made a typo when adding the require_once statement. Can u follow this pattern:

            // seems like this is needed for drupal 4.7, have not tested
            require_once 'CRM/Core/Permission.php';
            if ( CRM_Core_Permission::access( 'Gcc' ) ) {

and see if it works

thanx
