I have website in D6.
It has Custom content type,views and also maintaining user data.
I want those content type,view and user detail in D7. (same as D6)
How to upgrade my website?
I have just finished my initial site design on locahost, and I was going to push it to a server so my client could preview it. However, the site on the remote server is missing all my content, and my theme, though present, is disabled.
I pushed the site to this same server once before for the same reason; so my client could see it. It worked fine; now taking the same steps is resulting in no content. The steps I took:
I'm a novice with websites & Drupal. The following is just some of what I've learned along the way (usually by breaking my site and spending hours to fix it). I have found the following to be good general practice/tips/pitfalls to avoid. I'm sure there are much better, more detailed posts out there with tips, but this is as much for my own documentation as anything. Perhaps it will help others too.
You can get a successful install on Windows, but there isn't as much support for it. WAMP seems popular for this - I had the easiest time for my needs with UniServer.
For a Windows install, I have found the following (all free) programs to be very useful:
Uniserver - all in one Apache/MySQL/PHP server - all in one folder, easy to move around & backup the whole system
Notepad++ - good text editor with line numbers & syntax highlighting
HeidiSQL - windows based MySQL database browser/editor - good for being able to manually modify your database
Learn to use your error logs - especially your apache error.log
Do backups before making any changes - including upgrading and installing new modules.
It is much easier to just do a rollback than spend hours in the database or code trying to fix it.
I have Drupal 6, a website hosted on a Ubuntu administered via Plesk 10.4.4
Can anyone please tell me how I go about doing a nightly execution of my cron.php via the plesk crontab area.
I tried all the possibilities I have found at the Drupal forum, but does not work neither, but every time gives me error messages like:
-: /usr/bin/curl: No such file or directory
-: php: command not found
No such file or directory Could not open input file: cron.php
I've looked in the css through firebug, changed some values but nothing worked. I've tried disabling some modules, although i don't think that any module causes this template error.
Has anyone had this before? I hope somebody could help me out.
