hi all i have had to revert a test site to a 4.6.4 back up version. it has some patches applied so doesn't operate on our main drupal install. i obviously want to get this up to 4.6.9 asap. is it ok to go 4.6.4 > 4.6.9 or do i have to go 4.6.4>.5>.6>.7>.8>.9? i am familiar with the untar, do diffs etc malarkey, just want to know if i can get away with doing it once rather than five times. pault -- pault [at] burngreave [dot] net

Can't find theme
by Joe Murray 15 Sep '06

I've just set up a new 4.7.3 site http://mussarpractice.com on a new server - I've done lots before without problems -, and for some reason there's no theme and it can't even find the .jpg files in the theme directory. Hints on what I need to check would be welcome. Joe

Hi Jason, I have a control panel, and checked, but there is no link to logs. There is however a logs folder when I log in to the FTP site. I will check it and see if that contains anything worthwhile.

Most hosting companies should provide you your own access/error log (for your domain). Do you have a control panel where you can download/ view those?

Thank you, Greg. I have asked for that - I am awaiting response. :-) Regards, Kobus >>> Greg(a)GrowingVentureSolutions.com 9/14/2006 4:54 PM >>> On 9/14/06, Kobus Myburgh <ITBJDM(a)puknet.puk.ac.za> wrote: > My host has since told me that it can not find settings.php (the config > file), but I have checked, the file is there, it is correct (not > mal-formatted, or anything), and I have even replaced it from scratch. > Still not working... You should ask for the specific error logs. Those should contain information that, when searched, will probably give you the exact problem in just a couple of seconds. They probably won't want to do this as it requires them to filter the logs down for stuff just relating to your domain which may be a pain, but it's worth asking after a week of it not working.

Hi Simon, Thanks, yes, I have done those things. I have placed an index.html file there, and that displays fine. index.php (non-drupal) displays fine. My host has since told me that it can not find settings.php (the config file), but I have checked, the file is there, it is correct (not mal-formatted, or anything), and I have even replaced it from scratch. Still not working... I have asked the hosts to go over the permissions for me. Regards, Kobus >>> simon(a)swegles.com 9/14/2006 3:47:59 PM >>> Have you tried uploading and accessing any non-Drupal content on that host? That should be a very informative troubleshooting step. Try HTML and PHP content to see if there is any difference. It could also be a permissions issue.

403 Forbidden error when using multiple sites, one drupal
by Jody Cleveland 14 Sep '06

14 Sep '06

Hello, I'm trying to setup my drupal installation to have multiple sites. So, in my sites directory, I copied the default directory as menashalibrary.org. I created a new database for that site, and modified the settings.php file in the menashalibrary.org directory to point to the database. But, when I go to the url for the site: http://www.wals.lib.wi.us/drupal/sites/menashalibrary.org I get a 403 forbidden error. Looking at my server logs, I get this: [error] [client 172.30.2.145] Directory index forbidden by rule: /var/www/html/drupal/sites/menashalibrary.org/ I've looked at the forums and instructions online for this, and I'm very confused. What am I doing wrong? - jody

Strange issue
by Kobus Myburgh 14 Sep '06

14 Sep '06

Hi all! I have a very strange issue, and my host INSISTS the problem is with the PHP code of Drupal (can you believe that - I know Drupal well enough to know it is not!) Here is the situation: Thursday, 7 Sept 2006, ~ 17:45 GMT+2: Site worked FINE! I have just uploaded it, made some minor adjustments to the configuration file, and then continued to browse the site, simply checking for spelling mistakes and ommissions to the site. Suddenly the site went dead. As in "page not found". Like the A-record is wrong, but it is definately okay, as shown by the control panel. I can still log in to the FTP, and I can still access the control panel. But the www gives "page not found". This sounds suspiciously like something on the server. After that I've downloaded Drupal 4.7.3 again, reinstalled all the files from scratch, with the exception of settings.php and the theme, checked the database (optimize, repair, etc.) and the site still doesn't work, so it's not Drupal related, I am sure of that. The site also works on my localhost. So I am not sure what could be wrong... It is now a week later, and the site is still down. I was hoping someone here has experienced something like this before and can tell me what I can do. The host is running Windows/IIS. Regards and thanks, Kobus
