I am moving a site over to a different server to test.

I am getting the following error:

Call to undefined function field_attach_load() in my-path-to-root/my-site/includes/entity.inc on line 320

If I try accessing http://www.example.com/randomstuff, I get this error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function user_access() in /home/borsodas3/digipowers.devserver2012.com/modules/overlay/overlay.module on line 130

Fatal error: Call to undefined function node_access_needs_rebuild() in /home/borsodas3/digipowers.devserver2012.com/sites/all/modules/taxonomy_access/taxonomy>_access.module on line 598

phpinfo() returns following information for the two sites:

The Drupal status report from the site I am migrating FROM looks like this:

    Those errors generally means Drupal cannot find the files to include and which contain the Drupal core functions. If you don't get any error about the DRUPAL_ROOT constant not being defined, or about not existing files passed to include(), it could mean Drupal core files are corrupt. Check you have the core files in the directory to which DRUPAL_ROOT points.

  • so basically you are saying that some files could be currupt or missing?

    That is the more probable reason, but check the index.php file present in the directory where Drupal is installed, and check it is the standard one (click on "View source"); in particular check there is the line with define('DRUPAL_ROOT', getcwd()). I don't write this as answer because the question seems too localized. If a canonical question can be written, I could think adding an answer.

I had this same problem today and I fixed it by simply running the update script:

The update script is located in the root folder of your Drupal 7 install. eg.

www.mynewlymigratedtoserver.com/update.php

One other thing you should probably know, you have to be logged in to run the update script, you can login right? No, you can't! That's ok, there's a work around.

In your settings.php (usually /sites/default/settings.php) there is a line (231 for me) that says this:

$update_free_access = FALSE;

This variable determines if the update script can be used by anyone, not just logged in people. Set it to TRUE and you'll be able to run the update script. You'll want to set it back to false when you're done.

If that didn't work try this
