Strange Nice menu Issue
by Nancy Wichmann 11 Feb '14

11 Feb '14

I have a 6.x site with Nice Menus. On all but the front page, they all drop down nicely. But on the front page, you have to click them to get the drop down. Any ideas? http://captus.samhsa.gov/ Nancy

What is needed to install modules from Web page?
by James Rome 30 Jan '14

30 Jan '14

My Drupal server says: "Your server does not support updating modules and themes from this interface. Instead, update modules and themes by uploading the new versions directly to the server, as described in the handbook." when I go to the module update page. What might I be missing? I have SSH and FTP installed, and all the Apache2 modules (I think). This is on OpenSUSE 13.1 64-bit. Thanks, Jim

Drupal AMIs?
by Ari Davidow 29 Jan '14

29 Jan '14

I am trying to think of an easy way to introduce an online "Enterprise Content Management" class to Drupal. In the past, we have simply encouraged people to grab the "Using Drupal" book and install stuff locally. It occurs to me that in an age when we increasingly divide our time among multiple devices, it may be saner to simply open a free AWS account (1 year free, using microi servers, etc., to explore AWS), but if I send students to AWS, I either need to set them up with an appropriate LAMP/WAMP environment, and/or an AMI which already comes with, say, LAMP, Drupal, and Drush (to keep everything current). Is anyone using such a setup? Are there public AMIs I should take a look with? (They have to work with the AWS "free" setup, which, I believe, means that the AMI can't be tied to EBS, but I could be wrong.) Thanks, ari

Hi all, I am using drupal 7 and I want extract the zip file and save the extracted folder into files directory. I am taking zip file from one of my content type. For this I am trying to use ZipArchive class. $zip = new ZipArchive; $unzip = $zip->open($filename); ZipArchive Object ( [status] => 0 [statusSys] => 0 [numFiles] => 0 [filename] => [comment] => ) After printing $zip i get the empty array as above. Do any one know why this is not working in my case? Or any one know other way to extract file and save it to folder. Thanks in advance. -- Swatee Amit Karpe

Re: [support] Side effects/behaviour of overlay-child.js (with Selenium IDE)
by Peter Kehl 28 Jan '14

Jamie, I had done my homework. 'People' tab link can't be located by Selenium IDE, whether I use waitForXXX or pause for any long period. That's why I've asked here. -Peter Kehl http://docs.seleniumhq.org/docs/02_selenium_ide.jsp#the-waitfor-commands-in… Jamie Holly

Side effects/behaviour of overlay-child.js (with Selenium IDE)
by Peter Kehl 27 Jan '14

27 Jan '14

Hi, I'm writing a test script in Selenium IDE 2.5.0 (Firefox 26) for an out-of-the-box Drupal 7.24 (on Fedora 20). The script logs in as an admin. Then it clicks at 'People' tab. The tab (a page, actually) loads up well ( http://localhost/drupal7/?q=admin%2Fpeople&) however, Selenium IDE can't detect it as loaded (and Selenium times out). If I disable usage of 'overlay-child.js' in overlay_library() in /usr/share/drupal7/modules/overlay/overlay.module, then the problem disappears. The page loads up and gets detected as such, too. I'm new to Drupal. Could someone explain in Javascript/HTML terms (not in advanced JQuery) what overlay-child.js does, and how that could cause a problem, please? I'm asking you first rather than Selenium people, because Selenium is quite application-neutral and such problem are rarely caused on its side. It's quite difficult to reproduce this without installing Drupal. I've looked at https://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/modules!overlay!overlay.api.php/function/… at source of overlay.module, but it's not obvious to me. It seems to me that clicking at 'People' tab doesn't need overlays. Just in case you use Selenium IDE, the script is very simple: -- be logged in as an admin open | http://localhost/drupal7/ clickAndWait | id=toolbar-link-admin-people Thank you in advance, -Peter

by celati laurent 24 Jan '14

24 Jan '14

Dear all, Our drupal site is installed on a remote server. This afternoon i installed few Drupal modules (internationalization and variables). After activation of those modules, i noticed that my admin menu (content/structure/configuration/users,....) had disapeared. I don't know why. According to you, is there a way to recover the admin menu? I'm very annoyed by this problem. In advance ,thank you very much for your help.

Drupal and versioning
by Roger 23 Jan '14

23 Jan '14

I've been asked to look into version control with Drupal 7 and later 8. Has this been done successfully? How do devs handle version control?, what are the better tools? How does it work if one dev working on some part commits and it breaks something someone else is working on? Is there any documentation or video tuts I can investigate please. Many thanks Roger

Ajax requests terminating abnormally during image upload
by Alison 23 Jan '14

23 Jan '14

Just posted the following on the Forum - Support - Post Installation Board. Thought it may be of interest to contributors here. I have been getting Ajax requests terminating abnormally at odd intervals, and it has taken me quite a few days to tie it down. Mod_fcgid.c is central to the Fast CGI interface used for uploading images etc. The Default setting in fcgid.conf is for a maximum transfer of 131,072 - bits, bytes whatever. Thus MaxRequestLen = 131072. This needs to be significantly increased to handle image uploads in Drupal. A figure quoted elsewhere is MaxRequestLen = 15728640. Setting max file size to 4MB is all very well, but if the fcgid can only transfer 256KB without returning an error to the Ajax handler then an Ajax alert will be generated. Currently running 7.26 so very relevant. Alison
