Getting Drupal6 running on Debian LAMP system
by Gary Roach 21 Sep '10

21 Sep '10

I am trying to get a Debian Linux, Apache2, MySQL, PHP5 system going. All of the instructions that I find assume that I am installing from a tar file or some such. Debian installs everything, including the config files, automatically. The Dbian installation differs significantly from the documentation. I finally got Apache2, MySQL and /drupal6/install.php running but immediately got the install.php error shown below. Choose language The following error must be resolved before you can continue the installation process: In your /./sites/default/settings.php/ file you have configured Drupal to use a // server, however your PHP installation currently does not support this database type. * Install Drupal in English <http://cruncher/drupal6/install.php?profile=default&locale=en> * Learn how to install Drupal in other languages <http://cruncher/drupal6/install.php?profile=default&localize=true> Please check the error messages and try again <http://cruncher/drupal6/install.php?profile=default>. When I finally found settings.php, the file had been automatically generated by the .deb installation script. There is nothing obviously wrong with it. Debian notes say to use install.php at this point to populate the data tables. Obviously this is not going to happen until the above error is fixed. Any suggestions. Gary R.

CCK forms and Import/Exporting to Excel
by brendan, fresh-off 20 Sep '10

20 Sep '10

*Hello List!* I'm hoping somebody can give me some direction with a few tasks using CCK forms and Excel data. Here are the tasks I'm trying to accomplish: 1. Import Excel data into Drupal to populate CCK Forms 2. Export CCK form data into Excel Spreadsheets 3. A way to display the imported Excel data (probably just as HTML), and sort through it. And finally, I'm also curious to know if there are any good CCK form builders, or a good way for users to create their own forms on the fly? I've been googling around, but I'm hoping one of you Drupalers can point me in the right direction! Thanks! *brendan*

Views slideshow per row
by Idan Arbel 18 Sep '10

18 Sep '10

Hello, I'm trying to create a view of nodes, where each row has a slideshow field filled from a cck multiple image field. So for each node I would upload 3-5 images, and then create a view to list all the nodes, but to create a slideshow or a rotator for each one. Something along the lines of http://www.sortfolio.com I think I can do it by using the Galleria module and then displaying nodes instead of fields in the view, but I like the control fields gives me and I want to create a different node view. Thanks Idan

cannot see all Views
by Gerő Zoltán 18 Sep '10

18 Sep '10

Dear all Drupal developers! I can't see all of my Views - how is it possible? I checked these: - permissions: I am logged in as admin, and I added all the permissions for all the blocks. - put all marks before all Views modules. Where to know if I see all views? Where to find Views which related to users or registraion? Is there anything else to try? Thanks a lot, gezope

about location and Gmap
by Gerő Zoltán 18 Sep '10

18 Sep '10

Hi all! We are making a Drupal site about shops. We made a map about these with GMap module. We let users to add their own location, with Location module. (We can see them on user_location View, so it also works.) *The question is: how to mix them? How to make a map with all the shops (which are nodes, and easy to list them on the map), AND with the user's own location?* Every user should only see his own location. We should make it as a new View? I'm sure we are not the only ones who have this problem, and I'm also sure that others solved it before - sorry if you are bored about someone asks it again. It is also perfect if you give me useful links! Any suggestion is welcome! Thanks for all, gezope

Is it possible to print node outside of domain?
by A-NO-NE Music 17 Sep '10

17 Sep '10

On my main Drupal 6.19 site, I have my performance schedule page using View (but not Event). I would like to print this View node on my other Drupal 6.19 site which is my student portal site. They are two different domain/server. Is it possible? Currently I am doing this with I-Frame but this is so ugly. I don't need blocks printed. I only need the content of this view. RSS won't work since the schedule nodes are not created in timeline. View sorts them by the show dates. RSS won't respect it. Any idea would be appreciated. -- - Hiro Hiroaki Honshuku, A-NO-NE Music, Greater Boston http://a-no-ne.com http://anonemusic.com

setting dst in url_alias table to 255 length
by Hans Langouche 17 Sep '10

17 Sep '10

Hi there, I know it's bad practice but would there be any major implications (in e.g. updates) if I change the dst length in url_alias to 255 in stead of 128 ? My use case is that I have a bunch of aliassen based on menu_path (a product catalogue) and with the catalogue going up to 4 levels down the paths can get long (longer then 128). I know about this patch (http://drupal.org/node/288946) just want to figure out if this is "common" practice or a big nono. Tnx, Hans

Example of Book Page
by Rich Shepard 16 Sep '10

16 Sep '10

I'm brand new to Drupal and trying to learn it enough to migrate my company Web site to it from straight .xhtml/.css. I'm not a professional coder, but have developed scientific applications over the years in FORTRAN, C, and now Python. I'm also partial to the command line interface and use GUIs with less enthusiasm. I'll have a lot of questions where pointers to where I can read the answers are what I need. Right now, I'm reading the content handbook and would like to see an example of a book page/content type so I can better understand if it would be appropriate for me. Thanks, Rich
