I created a drupal account to explore possibilities a few weeks ago, but I now want to delete my account. I've found that this is not possible, and one needs to possibly request an admin to do so? If anyone can advice me on how to go about doing that, it'd be great. I've been looking around, to no luck so far.
Having access to, for example, musiciansfriend.com's product catalog database would be AMAZING. I'm sure that kind of information is extremely expensive and most likely proprietary, but if there's a free/cheap alternative it would work great for a project I'm working on.
A lot of musicians take a picture of the gear they're using before a show as a way to let fans see what they use or just to brag. :)
This is my second go at drupal. I had struggled with drupal 6 and decided to wait until drupal 7 had some maturity. I am not a programmer but I can usually hold my own. So I did some research and decided to go with HostGator.com. After 15 minutes my first drupal 7 site was live and ... I had my first drupal 7 error:
The directory sites/default/files does not exist.
A quick search on drupal.org yielded well over a quarter of a million hits. Embedding my search in quotes narrowed it down to 44 and that was something I could sink my teeth into. But alas, it was deja vu all over again: problems not well spelled out or apparently different from mine, too many solutions and few confirmations of those that solved the issue.
So I took a stab at Google and found the Stackoverflow.com link with the following solution that worked like a charm:
There is an issue with shared hosts and temp folders...if you want the background you can read this: http://drupal.org/node/1008328
in the meantime try changing your tmp folder to be relative to your sites file root:
sites/default/files/temp
Please someone help me. I am a php coder who has had a drupal site dropped in my lap and I don't even know where to begin. The site has been created overseas in India by some contract developers, who I cannot contact and don't even know who they are. I just know that the code looks to be Drupal coding (I think at least). I need advise where to begin working with this project. I understand this is an open open ended question but I really need help and don't know where to turn.
