I know I was being vague. I was trying to ask the question in general terms so that I would know how to handle all bugs, rather than the specific one I'm dealing with now. Though I'd love to have help on the specific bug I'm dealing with, I know that only a few people might have knowledge about the module that has the bug. However, many people deal with debugging scripts everyday, and that's why I was looking for some strategies to best track down and fix bugs.
But to be specific about the particular bug I'm dealing with, it's in Yahoo Terms module.
I posted a bug report on it at http://drupal.org/node/166932. As I first described the problem, Yahoo Terms were being applied to other content, like a forum post, though the Yahoo Terms module was not associated with that content. That was fixed with the patch supplied by douggreen at http://drupal.org/node/171620.
Since then I have upgraded the site to Drupal 5.2 and all of the modules. Now I'm seeing the same error on all feed nodes. The error happens only when the terms are applied when the node is created. It does not happen if the terms are re-applied to an existing node.
It appears that an array is not presented where the function array_merge() expects to see one in the argument.

Quoting Jim Smith jsmith@wate.com:
I've been working with Drupal for more than two years, but regetfully,
I'm not a coder. My strengths are primarily in theming. I know just enough survival PHP to get by.
So here's my dilemma: A module I need for a site I'm building has a bug that prevents it from working. I posted information about it in the project issue queue a few days ago, but there has been no response. I attempted to contact the module's maintainer, but so far I
have not yet received a reply.
I can find the approximate location of the problem, but I don't know how to really debug it.
What's a non-coder to do? Any suggestions?
Be a little more informative. We are willing to help if we know what we're helping with.
