Hello all. I am going to attempt to post a SENSIBLE question... (re. some of my previous posts)

I can't enable the xtemplate or other template. Although I can select the radio button for 'default', when I check the enable box, then save changes, it doesen't save changes. Only the themes settings page reflects the changes. Other pages on the site show no stylesheet, just bare content.

Hi

I'm having problems with the flexinode module that I have installed.

I'm getting an error back from the server:

warning: main(getid3/getid3.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/public_html/site/modules/flexinode/contrib/field_mp3.inc on line 3.

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required 'getid3/getid3.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php') in /home/public_html/site/modules/flexinode/contrib/field_mp3.inc on line 3

is this a url I need to update, or is it to do with my host not allowing access to folders above site level?

I have recently been assigned a project at school using different cms's. I have chosen to use Drupal 4.4.0 because it is stable, which is what I need to use. Also, I am using windowsXP, apache 2.0, all with mysq 4.0. Installation was very easy but I do not understand how Drupal sends mail to it's new users. This is the email that we all recieved with our password. Do I need sendmail? Can I just use the php mail function? Can someone please explain this process? I have looked through the forums and found very little documentation on this.

I am running Drupal 4.4 on a windows server 2003 box with php 4.3.9 and apache 2.0. I have been unable to get privatemsg to work correctly. The installation instructions, though outdated, are fairly straightforward. Drop privatemsg.module in the modules directory and put the sql in the database. But aside from the adminster->settings->privatemsg page and the write to author link on posts, it doesn't seem to work. No inbox or anything as well as when I click on the write to author link it takes me to privatemsg/msgto/8 which shows up "page not found".

Two identical installs, same database.

localhost/install1 is mapped as abc.com
localhost/install2 is mapped as xyz.com

two directories, two domains, one database

if I point my browser to xyz.com, a cookie is set that expires in three weeks. If I *login*, the cookie becomes a session cookie that expires immediately. bad.

if I point my browser to abc.com, a cookie is set that expires in three weeks. If I *login*, the cookie still expires in three weeks. good.

It's as if there was something about the "xyz" domain that drupal doesn't like.

But here's the kicker:

Two identical installs, *two* databases.

localhost/install1 is mapped as abc.com
localhost/install2 is mapped as xyz.com

if I point my browser to xyz.com, a cookie is set that expires in three weeks. If I *login*, the cookie becomes a session cookie that expires immediately. bad.

if I point my browser to abc.com, a cookie is set that expires in three weeks. If I *login*, the cookie still expires in three weeks. good.

BUT, and this is a big but, if I switch everything around, and map localhost/install1 to xyz.com and map localhost/install2 to abc.com:

if I point my browser to xyz.com, a cookie is set that expires in three weeks. If I *login*, the cookie becomes a session cookie that expires immediately. bad.

if I point my browser to abc.com, a cookie is set that expires in three weeks. If I *login*, the cookie still expires in three weeks. good.
