Can't get clean URLs working on OSX/Leopard
I'm running OSX 10.5.4, with the stock apache and PHP. I've installed drupal 6.3. My status report says everything is OK except for the GD library not installed. It reports: Apache/2.2.8 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.8 OpenSSL/0.9.7l DAV/2 PHP/5.2.6 I've followed all directions (at, for example, http://drupal.org/node/196646) , but I still can't get clean URLs enabled. When I look in the apache2 error_log, each time I go to admin/settings/clean-urls, it says: [Fri Aug 08 21:05:16 2008] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: /Library/WebServer/Documents/Users, referer: http://127.0.0.1/~roy2/drupal/?q=admin/settings/clean-urls Is this normal, i.e. a byproduct of the check, or does it indicate that something is really wrong? ---------------- Roy Smith roy@panix.com
OK, I've figured out what was wrong. I installed drupal under ~/ Sites. That meant I needed to go into .htaccess, uncomment the RewriteBase directive and change it to: RewriteBase /~roy/drupal Now it all works fine. On Aug 8, 2008, at 9:06 PM, Roy Smith wrote:

Is this normal, i.e. a byproduct of the check, or does it indicate that something is really wrong?

Who maintains the drupal.org website user accounts? Some time ago, I registered an account there. I seem to have lost my password, but the password recovery system isn't working. It claims to have sent an email with a new password to my email address (roy@panix.com ), but I never get that mail. When you click on the Contact tab, it says, "You have to log in to contact us." I can't even create a new account, because it says my email address is already in use! Rather a catch-22.
You can request that the email be sent again On Sun, Aug 10, 2008 at 12:45 PM, Roy Smith <roy@panix.com> wrote:

I've requested several times. Something is clearly broken somewhere. On Aug 10, 2008, at 12:11 PM, Victor Kane wrote:
