Need help getting modules to update

I haven't used Drupal in quite some time, and have a large amount of experience with WordPress. I suppose I've become somewhat spoiled by their easy updaters.

The first issue I'm having is just using the admin to update modules. When an update comes out, I select it, then I get sent to a page to enter my FTP information. Well, the server this is on (I'm using Quickstart 0.9.1 for my working copy) doesn't use FTP. Everywhere else I've read it will do FTP and SSH, but FTP is the only option for me in the pulldown and my SSH credentials don't work.

So I tried to use drush yesterday and it didn't work either. I looked at http://drush.ws/ but the info there seems to assume you already understand how it works. I tried pm-download and then pm-enable but neither resulted in anything. pm-download didn't put any files on the filesystem.

Manually updating is obviously an option, but the problem I have with that is I'm using SVN and erasing the old module directory also removes all the .svn files associated with it. So then I have to make a copy first, then manually copy those over. That's not really a good solution. (I'm using Versions on OS X for SVN. The repository is on a remote server, and my working copy is shared via AFP and it's the drupal site on Quickstart.)

Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded

In a development environment i am getting the following error.

Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /Users/melody/Desktop/aa2go/includes/database/database.inc on line 2039

I need more then 30 seconds execution time in this development environment.
I just am unable to find where i should change that.

Any suggestions.

Marcel.

Drupal 6 or 7 installation with postgres and non-default schema

I'm working on a project using drupal. I have to use postgres database with non-default schema. And I've got problems with drupal installation (both d6 and d7). My software is:

php 5.3.3
postgresql 8.3.7

First, I've tried install drupal 6... as prefix I wrote 'mySchamaName.' and everything looks good... but after instalation, when went to my home page I read:

Access denied

I've checked database... it looks like drupal created only ~40 tables... I don't know why? For example I didn't have user, block tables.

RSS Feed in a block - Without keeping previous items

Hi guys,

I'm currently trying to figure out how i could put an .rss feed from another site in a block. I know i can do this easily with the News Aggregator, but here's the kicker:

I want that block to only contain items within that feed. If item X disappears from the feed, it should disappear from the block. If the feed is empty, the block should also be empty to (or even better, with a custom message). The only occasion where old items should survive is when there is a problem connecting to the feed.

Views and date range ISO argument - cannot get it to work

Hi All,
I have hit a problem with a D7 view I am creating and I hope someone can give me a shout on it.

I am using latest Views and I have a date argument for a simple events list which I need to filter and organise by both month and week.

The month filter is a simple php date argument and works great - the problem I am having is with the week filter!
