Drupal upgrade easier

2012-05-03: Updated patch files to Drupal 6.26 and Drupal 7.14.

The standard procedure to upgrade Drupal to the latest release is to download it from drupal.org and follow the included UPGRADE.txt.

For administrators using the UNIX shell it may be easier using the attached patch files below instead of downloading and installing the newest complete Drupal release.

To patch your Drupal installation follow UPGRADING.txt up to "5. Remove all of the old files and directories from the Drupal installation directory." Go on using this commands:

  • cd DRUPAL-ROOT
  • Dry run: patch -p1 --dry-run < PATCHFILE
  • Patch: patch -p1 < PATCHFILE

Proceed with UPGRADING.txt from 8. Verify the new configuration file to make sure it has the latest and correct information.

(If you are impatient just run the 3 commands above. Be warned: this may break your Drupal installation so make sure to have a backup at hand.)

Warning

If you get errors like Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected or 1 out of 2 hunks FAILED while running the patch dry run (second command above) immediately interrupt patching and upgrade following the steps explained in UPGRADING.txt.

Use this patch files on your own responsibility. I don't guarantee the proper function of the patch files on Drupal installations other than my own.

Note: If the patch process gets interrupted and leaves a mix of patched and unpatched files you may re-run it by ignoring already patched files after eliminating the reason of the interruption:

  • patch -p1 -N < PATCHFILE

You may savely remove reject files created during that process:

  • find . -name "*.rej" | xargs rm

Patch files

Drupal 7

To verify the integrity of the patch files use this MD5 hashes:
