I am a programmer but drupal newbie. I have been playing with version 4.6.3 and came across one question that I should better illustrate with an example.
I created a vocabulary called Nikon (camera company). Don't worry about recommending using multiple vocabularies as I am trying to illustrate my problem.
I have installed event module and now i m getting this error
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 260 bytes) in /var/www/html/includes/theme.inc on line 946
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 137 bytes) in Unknown on line 0
I was definitely planning on using Drupal for my next project, and I still think its the best PHP CMS out there.
But after having done some work in Ruby on Rails, I'd definitely say that if you are looking to customize Drupal at all, that Ruby on Rails is a good idea to look at as an alternative.
If you haven't read this Einstein's blog yet, it is worth it.
From "Launching Blogtronix - Blogging and Social Networking service on Microsoft NET Yes baby" by Vassil Mladjov:
You may ask why we want to use .NET vs. Drupal or some other free blogging software. Well, because after talking to many corporations and potential clients, they all want a platform that integrates with your current IT infrastructure. So, since most desktops are a Microsoft based, why would you do anything else if you are going after the corporate market.
