Installation help
by Greg Volger 24 Jul '10

24 Jul '10

I'm trying to install Drupal for the first time on our school computer for the school's new web page. The installation finds the database but then doesn't like the security settings. It gives the following error: user warning: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your mySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ') ORDER BY fir DESC LIMIT 0, 1' at line 1 query: SELECT * FROM menu_roster WHERE path IN () ORDER BY fit DESC LIMIT 0, 1 in E:\html\includes\menu.inc on line 315. The message is repeated a second time as well in the error box. I'm running: Windows 2003 Server IIS V6.0 PHP 5.3.2 MySQL 5.1.49 Trying to install Drupal 6.17 using IE 8 The only thing I found in the forums was to set $cookie_domain (in settings.php) to the domain of the site, which I did to no avail. Please help!! Greg -- Greg Volger gvolger(a)san.rr.com

Hi all, I am attempting to recreate my site on a development box before updating the production box. I have copied over all of the files and the database. I then modified my sites/default/settings.php to the new database connection. The site has the custom theme CSS, but is giving me 404 page doesn't exist errors when I try to go anywhere on the site...is there something else I need to do to get the development box up and running? Thanks, Ethan

Missed the reply all button twice, forwarding to the list, it could be interesting for some people. Pierre.

You gave me some doubts, but I tried to build a view, without the me module, and it works fine. I had to set a menu entry as tab, and now I even got the tab on all user profiles. So, like I said in the first mail, put the 'user/%/path', set a menu entry as tab, if you want to tab to visible, and use an argument, and it will work fine. Pierre.

You might have encountered some problems with some custom modules, but out of the box (Drupal + Views), it works perfectly, I did it in some projects. Pierre.

url rewrite force www for multi-sites
by Christina Callahan 22 Jul '10

22 Jul '10

I'm hoping to find a solution that hasn't presented itself after tons of searching... I'm running four sites on one Drupal6 codebase. The first site is the main portal site and the other three are subsites. So - the base URL for each site are as follows: http://example.com http://example.com/site1 http://example.com/site2 http://example.com/site3 and the folder structure under /sites is: example.com example.com.site1 example.com.site2 example.com.site3 The sites are all reachable with this current setup, however, I'm experiencing some login issues that I believe are a result of the example.com and www.example.com being regarded as two different sites. I figured that all I needed a simple as modification to the .htaccess in the /drupal directory, however I'm not able to rewrite the URLs successfully for all my sites. By modifying .htaccess to show RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example\.com$ [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.example.com/$1 [L,R=301] I successfully redirect all of the pages on example.com to www.example.com, however example.com/site1, /site3, /site3 all get rewritten to www.example.com. I've not found a situation documented about this, and I've tried a number of different alternatives that don't seem to work. Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Tina

Drupal: MySQL vs. PostgreSQL
by Kevin Davison 21 Jul '10

21 Jul '10

I'm not very familiar with the use of PostgreSQL with Drupal, as I tend to use Pressflow with MySQL on most projects. I read about the advantages and disadvantages, but not sure how to compare a clustered DB with PostgreSQL and Pressfow running on Pantheon with MySQL optimized, perhaps on multiple DB servers. It looks like there are various issues with contributed modules & PostgreSQL, and that doesn't sound like much fun to deal with. So now I have a potential client who needs help with PostgreSQL in the mix, and I'm not sure if I should get involved. Here's the client's development/production environment: Debian Lenny (5.0) host environment Debian packaging for deployment Drupal 6 framework PostgreSQL 8.3 database Git source control Apache Solr 1.4 for search and related artist matching Amazon S3 + CloudFront for storage and streaming of videos FFMpeg for encoding of uploaded videos JWPlayer for playback (looking to replace this in a future phase)) Apache and Nginx web servers (although development can be done with just Apache) PHP 5.2 They know what they're doing! Here's what I read about PostgreSQL on Drupal.org: (From http://drupal.org/node/33171) > First off you have to ask yourself is it really worth it? In most cases no absolutely not, MySQL is just fine for sites that are small and want to remain that way, this includes personal sites and blogs etc. > > PostgreSQL's real strength at least in my opinion comes from its ability to seamlessly cluster, thereby distributing the load among many DB servers rather than bogging down a single server. If you have a big website with lots of traffic and have the resources for multiple servers, then PostgreSQL is definitely the way to go. This potential client has a lot of data, with the potential for a lot of traffic. Their current configuration may be ideal, as far as I know right now. And I've been really happy with staging development on WebEnabled, but they don't support PostgreSQL yet. I don't even have PostgreSQL installed on my local development environment! So I'm asking the Drupal community about this one. Perhaps I need to learn more about PostgreSQL, or I just need to stick with what I know best (as an intermediate at MySQL). And I may need some help from Developers who do know more. What do you think? Thank you, Kevin --- Quevin, LLC Quevin.com twitter.com/Quevin linkedin.com/in/quevin
