[drupal-support] "assign to" list drop down for project/issue
by Cheryl Chase 27 May '05

27 May '05

I'm the super user, but when editing an issue, the only options for users to assign an issue to are myself, or unassigned. How to enable other users as targets to assign issue to? // $Id: project.module,v 1.195.2.1 2005/05/24 21:01:57 unconed Exp $ cheryl

[drupal-support] events not showing up in calendar or events list
by Petre Scheie 27 May '05

27 May '05

Thanks to Gerhard and Rafael, I got the event module working. But now when I create an event, it doesn't show up on the calendar nor on the Events list. I looked at the node table in MySQL and it has the two test entries I created. But they just don't appear on the webpage. Is there something I have to toggle on to make them visible? TIA. Petre

[drupal-support] Installation on a database used by PHPNuke
by David Tannenbaum 27 May '05

27 May '05

Is it possible to install drupal using an existing MySQL database that is currently utilized by PHPNuke? (This database actually houses two PHPNuke sites, each of which creates its own tables.) Or, do we need an entirely separate database? Thanks, David

[drupal-support] Large taxonomy hangs server?
by Álvaro Ortiz 26 May '05

26 May '05

We have a Drupal 4.5 site running on a Pentium 4 with 1GB RAM (shared with other sites: one Drupal 4.5, some WordPress, some MT) and it might be that Drupal has been responsible for hanging it several times. The server gets collapsed and the only solution is to restart it - the hard way. (Ruby On Rails was the suspect so we move it to another server, but now it has happened again) The site < http://www.popmadrid.com > is a music community/ecommerce site [1], with two vocabularies (bands and labels) with +700 (seven hundren) terms each (being this huge vocabs the new suspects...). And not much traffic: 1200 users daily and 5000 page views. We activated the MySQL logs (general and slow) since last time and this morning the server crashed again. So we have fresh material to look at :) But it shows nothing strange :( (or at least something I can't get a clue from) At 7:55 this morning mysqlslow starts to get fillep up with slow querys from the DB Drupal is running on (and some querys from another apps). They are normal Drupal querys from core modules - The first query start at Query_time: 6; with many querys each second. Gradually (for 3-4 minutes) querys starts taking more time, 10-20, until some peaks of 120-130 query time and then query times between 40/60 and 100/150, with some very huge UPDATE cache SET data in the middle, until 8:25. At 8:24 with get query times of 400 up to 1200 at 8:35, the time at which messagges log stopped loggin anything. mysqlslow kept logging querys up to 2000 query time until we restarted. Some hint of what might be happening? ciao álvaro -- The Cocktail wwww -> http://the-cocktail.com blog -> http://furilo.com ring -> +34 91 567 06 05

[drupal-support] textile 4.6 fails to convert -- to mdash?
by Cheryl Chase 26 May '05

26 May '05

It looks to me as if Textile is failing to convert a pair of dashes to an mdash entity. This worked for me in the past. I'm running: Drupal 4.6.0, 2005-04-15 // $Id: textile.module,v 1.16 2005/03/21 16:06:59 jhriggs Exp $ Cheryl

[drupal-support] Subject: Re: textile for book module printer-friendly display?

Reading your message, I updated to the latest version of book.module, but that doesn't seem to fix the problem for me. Here's what I'm running: Drupal 4.6.0, 2005-04-15 // $Id: textile.module,v 1.16 2005/03/21 16:06:59 jhriggs Exp $ // $Id: book.module,v 1.288.2.6 2005/05/23 20:46:33 dries Exp $ Is there something I need to do to get printer-friendly book page to be textiled? I have multiple input formats (though all nodes in the book in question are of a single format).

In the context of a bit of phptemplate, how can one access the current actual url? and also the underlying url, before a path alias is applied? Cheryl

Re: [drupal-support] Help to create a "special" user
by Cheryl Chase 24 May '05

24 May '05

There's no way to do this without modifying the core code. If you want to go that route, it's in user.module. However, you have complete control over the permissions for people who are not logged in (role "anonymous"). Why not just use that? Alternatively, you could use .htaccess to deny access to the site to anyone who doesn't have the username and password that you have assigned. They won't be able to edit the password, and you won't have to modify durpal core code. A simple google search ("htaccess tutorial") produces the following page, which should get you going: http://www.freewebmasterhelp.com/tutorials/htaccess/ Cheryl > I need to create a special role/user on my site. > > Basically I want the users to log in with an username and password > I provide > without registering new accounts.

[drupal-support] project.module in 4.6 workable?
by Cheryl Chase 24 May '05

24 May '05

I have a staging site running drupal 4.6, and would like to use the project module to organize tasks with the client. But I can't get it to work, and it seems others have had the same problem (/project displays a blank page). I installed the cvs project.module, since none was available in 4.6 release. Is there a way to make this work, or should I seek a different solution for time being? Cheryl
