The icon of drupal doesn't work while the script DRUPAL refreshes the page to the drupal site. The problem is that the DRUPAL links refers to index.php. while the icon points to the drupal folder. so what do i need to do to change so that the icon also works like the DRUPAL word next to the icon

this is a bug and not a bug.

since themes can have different favicons, drupal looks for favicon in the theme dir that correpsonds to the theme your using.

so copy favicon.ico into that dir and you should be good to go.

I've tried putting the favicon in both the theme images folder and root theme folder, still not showing up.

When looking at the source of the rendered site it isn't even listing the favicon as trying to initialize.

Any ideas?

Once you put the favicon in the theme root you should be good to go. Make sure the "Use the default shortcut icon" is checked in your theme settings. Otherwise it might be a browser cache issue. Also, note that IE doesn't respect anything other than a .ico file.

I know this is old, but in case someone else runs into this issue... Once you put the favicon in the root of the theme folder and have the default location checked in the theme settings, try clearing Drupal's cache, if you are still having issues. I have used Drupal for years and the never really had an issue, but for some reason today, the theme did not want to let go of the default favicon's path.

If you have tried the solution I posted above, try clearing your browser's cache as well... I really wish there was more I could recommend.

If you are using something that is using APC (Advanced PHP Cache) you may need to clear that as well.
