Installing Drupal

I've been following the installation instructions for v.4.6.2.

The instructions tell me to make changes to the conf.php file in the "includes" folder. I have no conf.php file in my folder. Help!!

Thanks.

Hi...
Instead of sessionid, can I delete the session using userid???
this is my delete query --->
db_query("DELETE FROM {sessions} WHERE uid = '$key'");
here $key will be userid.....

Please help me regarding this

Thank you in advance

Sorry for such a basic question but I can't find any usefule information.

Does the Project Module work in 4.62? I would imagine it does becuase it is used here. But I can't seem to get ANY project to show on the project page. I can set up a project. I can submit an issue. But when I go to the project page there is nothing there. Also the Status Options doesn't work, it is just blank.

And while I am at it, where would you set up project release versions?

Thanks in advance to anyone that can provide any useful information.

Hi,

I have a problem on my server, and in order to diagnose it I'm checking whether the setup of the softwares I use is ok.

In the case of my Drupal install, it is v.4.6.2 and lives in a /var/www/html/portal/ directory. Users access the site through the http://portal.wikinerds.org/ subdomain which points to the var/www/html/portal/ subdirectory.

My .htaccess in Drupal root directory contains:

  # Modify the RewriteBase if you are using Drupal in a subdirectory and
  # the rewrite rules are not working properly.
  #RewriteBase /drupal

This means I have no RewriteBase configured since it is commented out.

Is this right?

Should I change anything?

Could this cause high utilisation of Apache on my server?

Is there anything else that could cause Drupal to overutilise the Apache server?

Hi everyone,

i think that not all the directory rights are set correct. when i place an image the site should resize the picture to the maximum size i set in the administration page. this doesn't happen and i get an php error in my list.
the picture then is uploaded in the original size.

does anybody know how i can correct this?

Hi all
I am installing 4.6.2 on a linux server on 4.23.58 and php 4.3.2 .(I know, not recommended)
For some daft reason, the database.mysql.inc is not passing any other user name,host or password to the mysql_connect statement other than nobody@localhost without a password.

When I change the mysql database user - nobody. and remove the password, the site loads beautifully and I could do wonderful things.

Please for some help in understanding how the db_url is supposed to work,
Thanks
