Drupal (6.20) recently prompted me to rebuild content access permissions. This occurred after installing the Taxonomy Access Control Lite module.
When I follow the provided link, there's a prompt warning that rebuilding permissions may take a while with yes/no option to continue. Confirming the rebuild goes to {drupal_installation}/batch?op=start&id=28. This screen shows a bar that says "Initializing". This screen stays like that forever with no sign of progress nor any error messages (at this point, I'm reasonably comfortable calling 72+ hours "forever").
It seems extremely likely to me that this rebuilding process is not working. As such:
1. Is there any alternate way that I can rebuild permissions? 2. Is there any way that I can turn on more verbose output to figure out what's going wrong? 3. Anything else I can check (.htaccess/host issues, configuration settings, etc)?
If it's relevant, I have currently ~50 content nodes and 6 roles.
