Views installs, site vanishes.

Look in your httpd error log and see if there is some kind of PHP error being generated?

There's been a lot of work on og to give it views compatibility lately, tho I suppose there could be some version mismatching. Are you using cvs tarballs, 4.7 tarballs or direct from CVS?

OG's probably been more recently updated in 4.7 branch than Views and there is probably a disconnect there. I know the CVS versions work nicely together. I think I'll do a preliminary 4.7 tagging today.

If the site vanishes completely then there's usually something in the error_log (php error of somekind).

When you say "httpd log" are which are you looking in, the access_log or the error_log ? The former won't give you much at all, the latter should.

I have experienced this also. I get this:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare og_views_default_views() (previously declared in W:\www\modules\og\contrib\og_views\og_views.module:226) in W:\www\modules\og\og_views.inc on line 412

...when using views CVS and og CVS versions AND vews CVS with og 4.7 versions. What's the status on this?

Looking at CVS HEAD it appears we have a function name clash that needs fixing by the maintainer(s):-

function og_views_default_views()

Line xxx in contributions/modules/og_views/og_views.module
Line xxx in contributions/modules/og/og_views.inc

Both files were last worked on by cvs user "weitzman"

This can be explained by last CVS commit message in the og_views.inc 8 days ago:-

og_views is now an include file and not a separate module. that module file should be deleted upon updating. views.module will become mandatory for og one day so it makes sense to just include it. if you have built views that rely on og_views.module, you should rebuild them. sorry.

So it seems og_views.module, as a standalone, is retiring? SO it seems teh solution is to disable og_views.module and use og.module to create / recreate your views

I can confirm that removing og_views.module did it for me. Everything is back.

As I understand it, the og_views.module is deprecated and should NOT be used.

This just happened to me today with today's most recent 4.7 versions of Views and OG. Is the problem back?

It happens to me AND I have no OG installed on a brand new 4.7.2.

In the error_log I spotted this entry:

PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 11520 bytes) in [DOMAIN]database/updates.inc on line 1783, referer: http://[MY DRUPAL SITE]?q=admin/modules
Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 153 bytes)

As a further info, I have to say that I run this site on mysql 3.23. In the error_log file, just above the Fatal Error, there's PHP notice:

PHP Notice: Undefined index: pass in [SCRIPTROOT]includes/database.mysql.inc on line 37, referer: [MY DRUPAL SITE]?q=admin/modules

Look at http://drupal.org/node/31819 for info on the allowed memory size issue.
