MOSSCon in Louisville in May! Submit your proposal this week!
by John List 27 Mar '13

27 Mar '13

Preparations are in full swing for the very first Midwest Open Source Software Conference (MOSSCon), to be held in Louisville on May 18-19. Your help in spreading the word and helping us fill out our schedule of presentations and workshops would be appreciated. This is going to be a great networking event for the whole region! Louisville is in such a central location, it can draw from a very wide area. We have a great venue: the University of Louisville's Student Activities Center, with several large halls, a number of smaller meeting rooms, and plenty of exhibit space available for groups and businesses to make their presence known. We are working on a broadly based "Open" theme, that can include open source hardware, open data, etc., as well as the full gamut of open source software. We already have some super presentations lined up. But there are still plenty of pieces that need to come together. Right now we are concentrating on filling out our schedule with more presentations and workshops. And soliciting sponsors. If you're involved with Open Source (or open anything) you definitely want to be a part of this. I encourage you to consider speaking or doing a presentation or workshop on a subject in your area of interest and/or expertise. Check out the conference website at http://mosscon.org/. Click on "Be a Speaker" for details on submitting your proposal. But get to it! The deadline for submitting your preliminary proposal is this Friday, March 29! http://mosscon.org/ Spread the word and submit your proposal! Thanks, John Hicks

Using a DS layout in Panels
by Jeff Greenberg 27 Mar '13

27 Mar '13

I have a hole in my knowledge of Panels that needs filling :) I created a DS panel for the node display for Commerce product-display. Works fine. Then the requirement changed a bit, so I decided that the product/xxx URL will be controlled by Panels, using a 2-column panel, and that the left side will be the DS layout. There is a DS choice in Panels when adding content, but it is not for selecting a DS layout. I don't see a place in Panels where I can add a content type (ie product-display) as content. So, two things driving me crazy. How do I get Panels to use the DS layout for the content type. And how do I use the product name as the context (Panels only lists product id, which is a number, which should not be the URL)? Thanks! -- --- drupal.org/user/367108 linkedin.com/in/jeffrgreenberg accidentalcoder.com / ayendesigns.com @accidentalcoder

Recent move Drupal 6.22, PHP5.3, PostGresql 8.4 doesn't work
by Max Pyziur 26 Mar '13

26 Mar '13

Greetings, Due an emergency (failing disk) we moved our whole server from a CentOS 5 machine to a CentOS 6. In the process, newer software versions were installed by default; relevant to Drupal CentOS 5 had PHP 5.1; CentOS 6 now has PHP 5.3 CentOS 5 had Postgresql 8.1.x; CentOS 6 has Postgresql 8.4.x The way I restored the Postgresql databases was through pg_dumpall to a huge text file, and then psql postgres < AllPostgresDatabases.out on the PG 8.4 system. Our Drupal installations were local from tarballs, not from RPMs. In most cases they are Drupal 6.22 The sites all show Drupal's blue page - site offline. The Apache logs show that the page returns a 503 Error. I'm in the process of trying to debug and in a bit of a rush. Usually, I try and research this in detail before posting. Much thanks for any advice on returning these sites to status quo. Max Pyziur pyz(a)brama.com

Drupal7 - Hiding Mail server information
by Kamal Palei 26 Mar '13

26 Mar '13

Dear All I am trying to send email with attachment in D7/CentOS environment. I faced some difficulties, and implemented on my own to send email with attachment. If I am sending a plain mail using drupal_mail and hook_mail mechanism, I see in receiving side my mail server details are not shown. If I am sending a plain mail (with or without attachment) using my own implementation I see my server details are there in received mail in Via, Reply-to, and few more headers. Example: via ip-xxx-xxx-xxx-xx.ip.secureserver.net How can I suppress http headers carrying my server details like ip-xxx-xxx-xxx-xx.ip.secureserver.net. Thanks Kamal

Views and Menus
by Ms. Nancy Wichmann 25 Mar '13

25 Mar '13

II currently have a view with an attachment. It works exactly like I intended it to. However, the customer has other ideas. The attachment shows thumbnails in black and white with a person's name. The page display lists all the details about each of the people. If she clicks on the attachment picture, the View shows only the person clicked on. Now she wants the attachment picture to get a border and switch to color when it is the currently viewed person. That's pretty much like a menu's active-trail. I'm not much with javascript, but will entertain that idea if there is none other. Nancy

Varnish
by Kamal Palei 25 Mar '13

25 Mar '13

Dear All I am planning to use Varnish 3.0.3 with Drupal 7.15. I hope both of these are compatible.., any input highly appreciated. Varnish binds to two ports 6081, 6082. I read somewhere we need to run Varnish in port 80 and apache in 8080 and accordingly we need to configure. If I do that, I am unable to access the site. Is it required to open port 8080 in firewall. Thanks -Kamal

Callback question
by Anthony 25 Mar '13

25 Mar '13

Dear all, I have this hook_menu in my cronmonitor.module file function cronmonitor_menu() { $items['*admin/config/cronmonitor']* = array( 'title' => 'Cron Monitor Settings', 'type' => 'MENU_NORMAL_ITEM', 'page callback' => 'drupal_get_form', 'page arguments' => array('cronmonitor_admin_form'), 'access arguments' => array('administer cronmonitor'), // in this array is the name of the permission ); return $items; } and in the cronmonitor.info file: configure = admin/config/cronmonitor Yet when I click on configure to the left of the misted module on the modules page and after enabling the module I only get to admin/config page rather than admin/config/crononitor page. We have tried on 3 different sites. This is from a tutorial on daily dose of drupal. Why don't I get to the cronmonitor page? -- *Anthony Stefan Maciejowski* *www.Tony-Mac.com*

permalink format
by Joe Corneli 24 Mar '13

24 Mar '13

Dear Drupalistas: Recently, we launched a Drupal-based system on planetmath.org. The system serves MathML-enhanced HTML5 that is generated from LaTeX sources. At the moment, our LaTeX converter produces links like http://planetmath.org/node/38977 -- Can you recommended a way to get Drupal to serve this content using the nicer permalink format http://planetmath.org/planetmath?
