Olivier,

It's not a straightforward upgrade from a version 6x to 7.x; that's a major upgrade. You have to first find out which modules are compatible with version 7.x, what your theme is and whether it's compatible, etc. There is a lot of preparatory work to do BEFORE any upgrade. This will give you lots of very good information <https://www.drupal.org/upgrade>.

You can ask GoDaddy to restore to the version before the upgrade, they do have backups; then read the documentation and figure out what needs to be done before any upgrade is done.
