upgrade from Drupal 4.7 to 5.3
by will hall 05 Dec '07

05 Dec '07

Hi all, i need to upgrade a template for a client from 4.7 to 5.3. Swapping old versions of modules with 5.3-compatible ones is pretty straightforward. however, I am not super-confident with php, and this page has me worried: http://drupal.org/node/64292 Can I reasonably expect that if I go through all the template files in /themes/clienttemplate, and replace any of the functions the upgrade node says are new, that the upgrade will work? what i want to avoid is getting in over my head, or causing the client's site to go down as I scramble to get someone to help me with an upgrade that I can't pull off. Also, i need to give the client a reasonable estimate of how much work the upgrade will take. thanks! will

Public members list?
by ian＠corpwatch.org 04 Dec '07

04 Dec '07

I want to create a page with a list of all of the people who have logins and make it accessible to moderators and administrators. Should I use views to do this and fiddle with the arguments, or is there a way to do this using Drupal core. I can't actually install new modules due to my server configurations. --ian--

DB.sessions.sid not populated for first user
by ext237 ext237 04 Dec '07

Hi. We are working on a new install and unable to login after creating the first account. When we try to request a new password, we receive the email and visit the change-password page, but pressing the button sends us to the not-authorized page. This hasn't been an issue on other installs, but this is our first from-scratch install. Anyone have any suggestions? Here's our setup > > Drupal 5.3 > > MySQL 5.0 > > PHP 5.2.5 > > Apache2.2 > > Windows2003 Server Joe

Access Denied when trying to create first account
by ext237 ext237 04 Dec '07

04 Dec '07

Hi, We've installed several successful Drupal sites on other servers, but having a difficult couple of days with a new install. After the install is complete, and we click on the link to create the first admin user/pass, everything seems to be going ok. When we click to save the new user/pass, we expect to see the message to check our email for user/pass. Instead, we get the standard login screen. We get the actual email, and when we click the email and get the page with the "login" button, clicking it results in the "Access Denied" page. When trying to log in via the usual user/pass combo, we go back to the normal first page with the username & password fields still there. The watchdog table seems to indicate we logged in correctly. We've reinstalled Drupal several times, and cleaned out the database/reinstalled. I've checked the forums, but the issues that seem related are about Drupal 4.x. Here's our setup, what are we missing? Drupal 5.3 MySQL 5.0 PHP 5.2.5 Apache2.2 Windows2003 Server Thanks in advance Joe

Controlling Node Access For Projects
by Steve Edwards 04 Dec '07

04 Dec '07

I'm writing a module that will control access to projects at a user level instead of a role level. I have an admin form written that will allow an administrator to select which users can access each project, and stores the data in a project_permissions table. My next task is to figure out how to use this data to control access to each project. From what I've been able to find, it looks like I need to use a combination of hook_node_grants() and hook_node_access_records(). I have my hook_node_access_records function written as follows: /* * Implementation of hook_node_access_records() */ function project_permissions_node_access_records($node) { if ($node->type == 'project_project') { $sql = "SELECT * FROM project_permissions WHERE nid = %d"; $result = db_query($sql, $node->nid); while ($permission = db_fetch_object($result)) { $grants[] = array( 'realm' => 'project_permissions', 'gid' => $permission->uid, 'grant_view' => TRUE, 'grant_update' => TRUE, 'grant_delete' => TRUE, ); } return $grants; } } and it correctly saves the data to the node_access table. I'm still trying to figure out how to implement hook_node_grants. If anyone can shed some light on that, I'd appreciate it. But my bigger question is this: does using these two hooks override the access that is set in the Project module? For instance, if a users role has been granted view access, but in my module he hasn't been granted access, which will win? Thanks. Steve

Invalid Links After Moving Site
by Steve Edwards 04 Dec '07

04 Dec '07

I created a Drupal site in two different places - a subdomain on my hosting account, and on my local machine. It's finally ready to go live, so I uploaded the files to the new web server where it belongs. I uploaded the files via FTP, created the database, and then used a dump from my local PC to create the tables on the server. When I pull up the site (using the IP address and user id, i.e. http://12.12.12.12/~acctname) the main page comes up fine. When I hover over a link, such as to the contact page, it shows correctly in the status bar (http://12.12.12.12/~acctname) But when I click on any link, I get http://12.12.12.12/~acctname/~acctname/~acctname/~acctname/~acctname/~acctn… where the user id is duplicated 20 times. I called my host, and they say it's something internal. I have a hard time believing that, since it runs fine in two other places. Could something have happened in the move that screwed something up? Thanks. Steve
