I noticed the error with the memory, and couldn't answer that, however, I gathered that you were struggling with getting everything running on Windows, and that was what I was responding to. Sorry for not clearing that up. Regards, Kobus

[drupal-support] I'll try anything
by Dan Robinson 09 Mar '05

09 Mar '05

Sorry if this is considered off-topic - but I've been trying to get some Drupal (4.6) work done and have been beating my head against this all day - I'm having a wierd problem. I'm setting up my laptop (winxp home) to do some dev. work - I have previously installed apache 1.x and PHP 4.3.10. I can't get the "memory_limit" ini setting to "take". It is clearly (and I believe correctly) set in my ini file - memory_limit = 8M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (8MB) Which is the default when you set up PHP. When I do a phpinfo() it simply doesn't report anything - doesn't show up. Other variables can be set in that ini file and they do show up. I have tried to manually set it but that doesn't work. I try this: print "here I am: ".ini_get('memory_limit')."</br>"; print "here I am: max size: ".ini_get('post_max_size'); and I can see post_max_size but not memory_limit. I have tried with both the cgi and dll flavors of PHP. I deeply suspect a stupid MS trick. HELP! Needless to say everything is working fine in linux land - I just got done there in 2 minutes what I have spent all day doing so far - but I would like to be able to work on my laptop (no jokes about installing linux on my laptop please - I've had enough today already). Thanks in adavance, Dan

Dan, Steve has this correctly summarized for the simplest way (at least for me). I have set up Drupal on my Windows computers for over 2 years now, ranging from Windows NT, 2K as well as XP home and professional. Using PHP 4.3.6 in most of my installations, I only had to do the following: 1) Copy some dll file (If I recall correctly by head, it is php_ts.dll) to the windows/system32 folder 2) Copy php.ini to the Windows folder 3) I had to edit php.ini to set "register_globals" to ON These instructions were included in the installation instructions for PHP 4.1.x that I once used, not sure if it is included in the latter versions. Another plan I tried recently, which also worked was to install PHPDEV, a full PHP/MySQL/Apache package that is available for download here: http://www.firepages.com.au/ Good luck and HTH! Kobus >>> public(a)destratify.com 3/9/2005 5:54:01 AM >>> I haven't done this, but one workaround would be to try setting the variable in the .htaccess file in your drupal directory. You should be able to add a line like php_value memory_limit 32M to the various php variable overloads in the section that begins with <IfModule mod_php4.c> # If you are using Apache 2, you have to use <IfModule sapi_apache2.c> # instead of <IfModule mod_php4.c>. if you've used the default .htaccess file. I have no idea how this would play out on a windows system, however. -Ethan. stevew(a)etmeli.us wrote: >I got Drupal running on my laptop at home and the one I carry for work, so >I know it can be done.

[drupal-support] Controlling the form theme
by Dan Robinson 08 Mar '05

08 Mar '05

Hi, I'm creating a form using form_group. I want the form to look like the following - dropdown1 dropdown2 dropdown3 The default behavior is giving me: dropdown1 dropdown2 dropdown3 This is an XHTMLTemplate (bluemarine). How do I go about getting what I want? I don't see the code in xtemplate.xtmpl. I've poked through the documentation - it doesn't look like I can do it with theme_x. Any hints - can someone point me to an implementation that deals with this? Thanks, Dan

[drupal-support] User Admin and 4.6
by Dan Robinson 07 Mar '05

07 Mar '05

Hi Folks, Over the past few months I've been using the CS distribution mostly so I may just be making some silly mistakes/assumptions - but I wanted a reality check on 4.6. I'm posting here in support because I assume that these are not real issues - just user stupidity - 1) I've installed on my local WinXP box 2) When I browse to the site for the first time I am faced with creating a new user. The register page is asking for an email and telling me it will email me the password. Since sending mail is not really an option on my WinXP box it seems like this will never work. I try anyway and viola - I get the password presented to me in the browser. I assume this is because the mail failed etc. etc. I think quite a few people will be stopped here - a note to the confused would be an improvement. 3) What happened to the admin/users tabs that let me get to the access rules? After much poking around I *stumbled* over them in a link at admin/modules in the *explanation text* at the top of the page - which brought me to admin/access/permissions - I couldn't find this in the menu's anywhere - really confusing. Dan

[drupal-support] unable to get FCKeditor to work with IE
by Volker Wegert 07 Mar '05

07 Mar '05

Hello, I've set up a new drupal site a few days ago and tried the FCKeditor module for the first time. While I'm quite impressed with its flexibility, there seems to be a slight problem: The editor works fine as long as I'm using Firefox. As soon as I switch to IE, the toolbars are gone. Everything else (shortcuts etc) still works, but no toolbar. I found some comments on the drupal site and tried to change the path setting to different values, but this didn't solve the problem. What could I do to get FCKeditor working with IE? Thanks Volker -- * Volker Wegert * http://www.volker-wegert.de/contact * * "Ich denke nie an die Zukunft. Sie kommt früh genug."

[drupal-support] Deleting flexinode type
by Anisa 06 Mar '05

06 Mar '05

I deleted a flexinode type, and subsequently all content associated with it... but when I go to create content now, I still have a link to create that flexinode content. clicking on it just takes me back to the create content page. Why doesn't this disappear, and what should I do? Thanks! Anisa.

[drupal-support] Limit the filters available for a certain post?
by Anisa 06 Mar '05

06 Mar '05

I would like to use a Wiki filter for a specific field in a new module I am trying to make... either make it a default for that one field, or make the other filters unavailable. Is there anyway to do this? I don't want to change it to the default for the whole site. Thanks! Anisa.
