hello again, next problem, next chance :-) i had now a dozen tries to install and deinstall the views-module in drupal 6.6 with many different ways - just deleting the folder (maybe not that good..), deactivating it and deleting the folder, removing it in the databse, installing it again and deinstall it with the deinstalltion-routine in the modules-area - but everytime i end up with these problems: - activating the views-module hangs indefinitly at "import of the surface-translation" <--(which is a direct translation from german to english, i don't know how this is called in the original english-surface) refreshing the site brings me back to the homepage and i have to log-in again. the views-module is now activated, but it is impossible to activate views_UI: trying it with /admin/build/modules says "site not reachable" and doesn't activate it, and when i activate it with phpmyadmin, i am no longer possible to reach /admin/build/modules.. any ideas? :-jo
