Hello users,

I am new with drupal! I just installed Drupal 6 on my server and would like to our website base on Drupal CMS. However, I just got stuck right on a beginning, which is make a "menu".

I've logged in as admin: Administrator->Site Building ->Menus>Primary Links ->Add Item> then I add

Path: home
Menu Link Title: home
Enabled: yes
Parent Items: Primary Links

I like the URL like: www.mysite.con/home

But when I clicked a save button, there was a error messages like "The path 'home' is either invalid or you do not have access to it". If I change "Path=node or admin". It looks OK.

Did I do any thing wrong with "Path=Home" and how to fix it?

Thanks,
Q

That is because the path '/home' refers to a directory, which does not exist.

You can install drupal inside a directory with that name and just use the regular path:

Path:

For example, it will be installed in http://intribu.com/home

That will lead you to the front page.

I'm getting the same error when I'm trying to like a menu item to a unpublished page. Publishing the page solved the problem.

Creating a menu-entry, then entering a nice path can create this error as well.

Solution:
I made a lookup of the correct path in form of node/[id]. This path could be used without any problems and is translated into a nice URL while this entry is outputted to the browser.

Should you not use <front> as the path to refer to the homepage (in 6 this is in the help under the path field.)
