I've just installed Drupal 4.1, from the Debian Linux package. Something in the interplay between Drupal, Apache 1.3, and the PHP4 module seems to be buggy: if a user changes a theme, the theme change takes effect immediately on the user settings page, but does not show up on the Home page or other pages. And it doesn't show up if the user logs out & logs back in again.

I'm not an Apache or PHP guru by any means, so I don't know what settings I might need to tinker with to change this behavior. Any suggestions appreciated.

(P.S.: is there a Drupal module that lets users optionally be notified by email if someone posts a response to their Forum comment?)

I do not know if there was such a bug in Drupal-4.1, but it is most likely not present anymore in Drupal 4.2 which is the current version.

So, please upgrade and you will be more likely to find help as there are more people who run the same system.

O, and please log a bug report with the Debian people for not upgrading their package.

On your PS: Not yet.

Yes, upgrading from source has eliminated the bug. Thanks for the suggestion.
