Gordon and all,
Thanks for all your help. The host has found some issue on the server thanks to your troubleshooting, and is investigating a possible solution.
In the meantime he asked if I could ask the list if it is possible to put a port number in the $db_url for the database server?
in other words, something like: $db_url = 'mysql://drupaluser:mypassword@111.111.111.111:3307/drupaldb';
where 111.111.111.111 is the MySQL database server?
My gut feeling is that the string will not get parsed correctly, because of the fact that there is a : already in the $db_url after the drupaluser.
Any ideas on this, please?
Thanks!
Kobus

Hi,
How far through the init is it getting?
If you want contact me in #drupal-ecommerce, and I will give you a hand
Gordon.

Hi,
I have moved one site from a temporary domain located on my US host

-
just displays a blank screen. At first I thought I did something
wrong,
but then I did a blank install of the latest Drupal and that won't
work
either. My conclusion is that my web host has something wrong on the server.
I have added a phpinfo.php file on the US account where the site is currently (temporarily) hosted and also one on the new hosting space (final host), and both show the PHP info correctly, in other words,
PHP
is running on the new host, but there still is something wrong.
There
are many differences between the outputs of the PHP info in the different instances, but I don't know the significance thereof.
The SA host, for example, uses PHP 5.1.4 and the US host PHP 4.4.x.
I
doubt that should be an issue, but that is unfortunately the only
thing
there that is significant for a person with my skillset, and
therefore
am wondering if someone is willing to look at the different
phpinfo()
outputs and perhaps tell me where the problem lies (if the problem
is
hidden in there somewhere)?
If so, please let me know so I can send you the URLs for the phpinfo.php file, as I am not sure how sensible it is to send that
info
over to a public mailing list.
Hope someone can help, as the person I am doing the site for is
getting
somewhat peeved off with me being unable to get the site up and
running
:-(
Thanks in advance!

No, that should work just fine. Drupal handles port specifications just fine using PHP's parse_url().
Hi all, I've been away for a bit from the list and now I'm noticing that 4.7.x is the latest version. Ok, I have some sites that use 4.6.x. I'm wanted to figure out what steps would need to be made to keep the content of a site and upgrade the install. Here are some obvious concerns. 1) The modules are specific to a particular version, so whatever content used a module with 4.6.x will cause problems. For example, I use a flexinode content type. How can I keep content that uses the flexinodes for 4.6.x when I upgrade to 4.7.x? 2) and other content that uses a module for 4.6.x what will happen to it when I upgrade to 4.7.x? say I had a movie review module. what would happen when I upgrade and no longer have that module available? 3) what do I need to backup and how should it best be done to make these upgrades?
4) If I wanted to give a client all the content and the install of a site, on a CD, what steps would I take? what would I need to backup and how? The goal would be to give the client on CD everything they would need to keep the content and if needed install it elsewhere? 4a) What steps would be taken to one, backup everything and two setup the site again from the backup contents?
5) I want to do this with a writer's community site and poetry magazine online. Where might I seek persons to share admin tasks for this community, from among persons that know Drupal? Maybe a newsgroup, for writers, or one for CMS users, might exist where one could request others to join with me on such a website/CMS installation. Thanks so much in advance, Bruce

Hi all, I have a couple newbie type questions about content for the site. 1) What are the default tags that are available when submitting content and the content type selected is Filtered HTML? a) In particular, I want to use columns within the middle content area. Does Filtered HTML by default support table tags? and are the options such as align="center" or width="50%" allowed? e.g. <table width="50%" align="center"> and <tr align="center"> and <td width="50%"> etc. as examples? 2) How can modify the allowed tags that are allowed for Filtered HTML? 3) How can I allow content that is Full HTML or PHP for a particular type of content? In other words, if I wanted to allow Books to accept say Full HTML?
4) I want Anonymous and Authenticated users to be able to submit any type of content but I want it to go into the queue, selecting published for them should not be an option. Others with higher permissions can select published. How do I do this? Is this set in access control? For example if i give a user create book pages, edit own book pages and maintain books, will they be able to directly bypass the queue?
Thanks, Bruce

It should say in the filter help text right on the page.

Go to admin/filters (Navigation menu, administer, input formats). Read the help on the page. It should be self-explanatory.

Currently you can't restrict certain node types to certain filters.

Set the default options for each node type to not include "published". See admin/settings/content-types. Then only users with administer nodes permission will be able to edit the node and check on the published checkbox (or edit or delete or whatever).
Thanks, Bruce
