Installing Drupal

My site was working just fine this afternoon. I logged out, and then could not log back in.

It takes the login without complaint, and allows you to go the correct page -- but all the other items on the page that check for logged in stay as anonymous. And then next link you click shows that one is not logged in (access denied). My site is set up so that most content is only available to users who are logged in.

After a couple of hours of searching Drupal web site for the problem I have, I decided to post a topic, forgive me if this problem was discussed before.

After uploading a file, it remains in files/tmp directory (which I have chosen for temp files) but it is listed in attached files list.

The permissions are OK for the files directory.
I have changed the temp directory into files and it works. But I don’t know if this is the right solution…

safe_mode ON
PHP Version 4.3.10-16
Apache/2.0.54 (Debian)

In a 4.6.5/phptemplate installation, I've installed the banner module, and it's successfully putting banners on my pages. But I'm having two problems:

(1) Banners in group 0 sometimes appear, and sometimes they don't. Banners in other groups appear reliably, except that...

(2) I have several banners in each group, but only one of them ever appears -- no rotation is happening. I can move the banners around through different groups and they will all work individually; they just won't rotate when in the same group.

Any suggestions?

I installed Drupal 4.7.0 beta 3. I followed the "Single user blog - basic" instruction to add image module.
I copied image folder to the modules directory just as the install.txt says.

When I went to administrator => modules, I got error message:

Fatal error: Only variables can be passed by reference in C:\www\drupal\modules\image\image.module on line 730

I did not find image module under Modules download page for 4.7.x but under 4.6.x. I used this one. I wonder if this version is compatible with 4.7.0 or not?

Does anyone have an answer?

Hi,
I installed Drupal succesfully. But I get an error that says:

* The directory files is not writable.
* The built-in GD image toolkit requires that the GD module for PHP be installed and configured properly. For more information see http://php.net/image.

I have FC4 with the standard PHP 5.0.4. I don't think that Fedora ship their PHP without GD enabled. If so how can I enable GD support?

Thanks

I am not seeing any "access control" option under "Administer". Everything else seems to be showing up as expected and the site works fine with the exception of me not being able to set access controls (something I really need to be able to do).

Any ideas?

Thanks,
