If you've already done your update to Drupal 4.6.4, you may have noticed that your admin tables aren't quite working right. That's because a little bug slipped through.
You can apply the patch yourself. Or you can download the attached file, unzip it and upload it into your /includes folder. (Usual disclaimer: While this file has tested well and performed as expected on our sites, it is offered as-is, with no warranty.)
(Note to our supported hosting clients: Your sites have been updated already.)
If you have yet to do your update from Drupal 4.6.3, you can simply:
- Backup your site (folders and database), as you always do before a site update;
- Download Drupal 4.6.4 and unzip the tarball;
- Replace
/includes/common.incwith the unzipped file attached here; - Using sftp or shell, upload the files in
/modules,/includesand/scripts(as these subfolders contain all the updated files), as well as thechangelog.txt. There were no database changes.
That should do it. Be sure to test your site before running off to do other things.
If you're still running Drupal 4.6.2 (or 4.5.5) or an earlier version of Drupal, you really should look at updating. Here's why.

thanks
Thanks for the pointer. Too bad the fix will probably stay kind of hidden until the next security update.
thanks
Thanks so much -- fixed the last barrier to getting my site up on Drupal. Yay!
Thanks a ton
Was a little worried there. New Drupal user checking in, got 4.6.4 and loved it, except I noticed a bunch of bugs. Sure there are lots of fixes and patches, but this one particularly drove me nuts.
This patch fixed it right up, no worries. Thanks a ton!

That 4.6.5 is now out, with mostly minor fixes including this one.
Out of topic but if u have the answer, you save my site :)
I have been triying to find a solution in upgrading civicspace to drupal 4.6 . How could i move my civicspace into drupal? I don't know what to do. Is there anyone who could help me explaining what should i do step by step?
my civicspace version is CivicSpace 0.8.2.x
CivicSpace is Drupal plus a bunch of modules
In theory, you would disable the modules that are not part of Drupal core and then upgrade Drupal.
I would recommend upgrading to Drupal 5.2. The toughest upgrade is from 4.6 to 4.7, but from 4.7 to 5.2 is pretty straightforward.
