Hello -- I've been testing our Drupal 6 backups in order to simulate a disk crash. I'm using an rsync backup program to transfer everything under 'www' to a Windows network share, including the daily mysql backups created by the Backup and Migrate module. When I restore the files to an empty test subfolder inside www, reset the settings.php, re-install Drupal, and restore the most resent sql dump from Backup and Migrate, everything looks fine until I attempt to modify and save any of the pages. (Note that I am logged in as administrator). The pages are saved as "unpublished", and however many times I select "Published" just before saving the page the status doesn't change. Note also that the page comes up in edit with "Published" unchecked, even though it is published on the production site. I've checked, and Administrator does have "administer node" privileges. As this is my primary backup strategy, I would like to know some ways of determining where the problem may lie. Thanks in advance ... -- Best, Darrell Eifert Lane Memorial Library (603) 926-3368
