Hi All,
what is the best way to upgrade the mult-site with single code-base because now when i upgrade the site from 5.x to 6.x it only upgrade the main site where i started the upgrade process with update.php but when i go to site2.com/update.php , it does not upgrade anything site specific tables.

Thanks,

Hi:
I have never done but you can test if you want (Perhaps it works).
When you work with multisite each site works with its own DB.
The steps you can follow are :
1.- Make a site (in other -sub-domain and with D5) with all the files that this site was builded (if you have added other modules, themes, etc). First the files from the main site and then add the other files.
2.- Use the DB from the multisite (in D5) in this site
3.- You migrate to D6.
4.- This DB created you use in the new multisite environment (the same way you made in D5).

I hope this works.

Manuel.
