Problem with recreating the site
by Afan Pasalic 07 Nov '12

07 Nov '12

Hi to all, I had some issues with hosting company and had to leave them. But I did download all files and made mysql dump (using phpMyAdmin). The site was made with Drupa 6. I tried to recreate the site on my mac mini (MAMP) but wasn't successful. I copied all Drupal files inside MAMPS/htdocs (didn't forget .htaccess) and created a database with the same name and imported mysql dump (using also phpMyAdmin). Then made the change in settings file (line 92: $db_url = 'mysqli://root:root@localhost/mydbname';) Result is completely blank page. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for any help, Afan

running drupal 7.16 on readynas nvx business adition
by Jim Ruby 07 Nov '12

Hi, has anyone done this and how hard is it to setup? If you could give me some steps that would be great. I'd love to have my test sites running locally on the nas here if I can. What would be ideal is to have the following scenario 1. duplicate of productions sites on the nas that update themselves from the production hosting company could use remote backup for this 2. test environment for updating and testing of things. 3. way to update production sites when things prove to be stable in the testing area.

database schema error - what to do???
by Dave Stevens 06 Nov '12

06 Nov '12

Hello All, I have a d7.15 site under development. When I run the status report I get this: Database schema Inconsistent The Schema comparison report shows: * 25 modules with matching tables * 1 modules with mis-matching tables The database schema comparison report provides more details. And then the schema report shows three headers, Match(92) Mismatch(3) Extra(0) and under mismatch is Search with - Search_dataset column type - differences on: length, default declared: array('description' => 'TODO: please describe this field!', 'type' => 'varchar', 'length' => 16, 'not null' => TRUE) actual: array('description' => 'TODO: please describe this field!', 'type' => 'varchar', 'length' => '64', 'not null' => TRUE, 'default' => '') - Search_index column type - differences on: length, default declared: array('description' => 'TODO: please describe this field!', 'type' => 'varchar', 'length' => 16, 'not null' => TRUE) actual: array('description' => 'TODO: please describe this field!', 'type' => 'varchar', 'length' => '64', 'not null' => TRUE, 'default' => '') - Search_node_links column type - difference on: length declared: array('description' => 'TODO: please describe this field!', 'type' => 'varchar', 'length' => 16, 'not null' => TRUE, 'default' => '') actual: array('description' => 'TODO: please describe this field!', 'type' => 'varchar', 'length' => '64', 'not null' => TRUE, 'default' => '') So, knowing as little as I do, it seems that there is a discrepancy between the length descriptors as 16 vs 64 characters, but I haven't a clue what to do about this or where to report it, if that's the indicated action. All of this is under the compare tab, there's more under the other tabs but I don't know what's relevant. E.g., there are 700-odd fields with no descriptions listed under the "describe" tab. I'm much too attached to the parts of the site that DO work to tinker blindly. Advice? Dave -- Politics is the Entertainment Division of the military industrial complex. ~Frank Zappa

Need a module for charting
by Jeff Greenberg 06 Nov '12

06 Nov '12

Is there a module for D7 that enables me to enter data and create a chart? The 'enter data' seems to be the issue. I see no shortage of modules that provide graphing/charting api's and engines, but I don't want to create a module to chart or use views, I just want to enter data and be able to display a chart. -- --- drupal.org/user/367108 linkedin.com/in/jeffrgreenberg accidentalcoder.com / ayendesigns.com @accidentalcoder

Backup Approaches - Which Do You Use and Why?
by Kenneth Jacker 03 Nov '12

03 Nov '12

Though I am sure that there are more, I can think of at least four ways to backup a Drupal site: * Drush's 'archive-dump' (ard) command (Backup your code, files, and database into a single file.) * The 'Backup and Migrate' (B&M) module (simplifies the task of backing up and restoring your Drupal database) * Use a "version control system" (VCS) * Use 'rsync' B&M allows automatic scheduling of backups ... definitely an advantage. 'ard', on the other hand requires manual, 'cron' or scripted invocation. *I* seem to favor 'ard' since it backs up *code and files* along with databases. B&M, apparently, only backs up databases. Another approach might be using a VCS (e.g., 'git', 'subversion', _et al_) ... or keep synchronized copies with 'rsync'. (These two, however, seem more suited for maintaining "development" and "production" versions of a site than for backing up.) How do *you* periodically backup your site(s)?
