CCK Intro .... where is it? New Fields?
by Tom Holmes Jr. 30 Nov '07

30 Nov '07

Well now ... I have a wonderful fresh new working install of Drupal 5.3, and yes I am reading every ounce of documentation and reading two books on Drupal. According to: http://drupal.org/node/101723 The Content Construction Kit is supposed to be built into Drupal 5.3, and according to the docs .. "enable the Content Construction Kit modules at Administer >> Site building >> Modules." But I don't see the CCK there to turn on. However, I can list content types, and I can add new content types or edit existing ones .... I tried to take the "Story" content type and add new fields to it .... as the docs say ... "configure the Content Construction Kit fields by going to Administer >> Content management >> Content types and select a content type to edit. On the edit screen you will see tabs to Manage fields or Add field." Well ... nope ... there is no "Manage Fields" or "Add field" .... so again, *I* must be doing something wrong. I will continue to research this .... but in the meantime if anyone can help me out ... that would be great. Thanks again! Tom

Installation Issue with MySQL
by Tom Holmes Jr. 30 Nov '07

30 Nov '07

I've got Drupal working on one or two other machines because the database was local. Now I've got an instance of Drupal I want to install ... but the database is on another server ..... I put in the database, database user, user password, the new server name and port .... and it STILL tries to connect to localhost like it is NEVER getting the name of the server I entered in. I'm about to go into the install.mysql.inc file and just hard-code it at this point ... just to get it setup .... Any ideas? Thanks! Tom

taxonomy term problem
by Sarah.Vardy＠student.griffith.edu.au 30 Nov '07

I previously had the taxonomy working with taxonomy context to create menus. Now, when I click on one of the drop-down items in the list (that is just defined as a term in a vocabulary) it cannot find the page. What is the problem here? Thanks in advance, Sarah

Dear Tom, Have you check the database setting on settings.php? Also, can you make a little php script to connect to the remote server? Hope it can help you.

Re: [support] List of Drupal Sites?

I don't think it is. /user and /node/1 both 404 and the css files don't look right. Michelle On 11/29/2007 2:06:39 PM, Jim Smith (jsmith(a)wate.com) wrote: > Are you sure that's a Drupal site?

Multi-Site Database Question
by Tom Holmes Jr. 29 Nov '07

29 Nov '07

Yes, I did review the Drupal forums and mailing lists first, and I did a Google search also ... but I am still confused ... so pleas pardon my ignorance. I am looking for a new CMS system. I am using Drupal 5.x at home for other purposes, but for work, I have a few questions. Imagine I have 20+ web-sites, and I have 1 million+ pieces of content, I want to be able to share all content across all the sites. We are going to be using Resin (with Quercus for PHP) as the web/app server, and MySQL 5.x for the database. We will be backing up all this database data from one database, that's not an issue. So, if you can tell me that this is ok, and can be done, that's great. If you just want to point me to some documentation that discusses this, and the pros/cons, that's fine also. Thanks very much! Tom

How to check- out proper module version (help!)
by stef 29 Nov '07

29 Nov '07

Hey all ! I'm having a slight problem here for a CVS checkout. I am kind of confused on the repository layout, it seems there are many branches cluttering up the tree, and finding the proper tag for a module, although I did sort of understand the manuals directions . Trying a checkout on backup_migrate , ( http://drupal.org/node/189068 ) , I see the release listed as backup_migrate 5.x-1.x-dev . I have checked out like 4-5 branches, contributions-DRUPAL-5- -1- - dev, contributions-DRUPAL-5--1-0-DEV, contributions-DRUPAL-5--0-1-dev contributions-DRUPAL-5--0-1-dev This last one screwed up I think, because it did not create a new folder. I assume windows being case-insensitive dumped all in contributions-DRUPAL-5--0-1-Dev that was already checked out. Anyhow, after an hour of checking out all these branches, I am kind of stumped as back_up migrate is nowhere to be seen , apart from the HEAD checkout. I don't want HEAD, it does not work well on Drupal 5.3. So if someone can slap be with a clue-stick, I would be happy to know how one finds the proper branch for a particular module, I am sure there are nodes somewhere on this but the ones I found and reread a few times over have not helped me. I am french so maybe I missed out on something. Thanks!
