Hi folks,
I'm new to drupal and I'm developing a site on a 4.7.3 install, occasionally mirroring to my hosting provider for client approval. Two days ago I attempted unsuccessfully to install CCK 4.7.0 on my development system.
At first I tried to enable a few of the CCK modules in administer->modules, but received a blank page after clicking 'Submit.' Upon reloading the modules page I was informed that some of the db tables that should have been created by content.install were not present. CCK permissions were available in administer->access controls, and the content->content types menu item became available, but of course would not work correctly without the db tables. I have not tried creating the tables from content.install manually, after an unsuccessful report on an old thread here: http://drupal.org/node/63565
I restored a copy of the database from the production server and tried again, this time only enabling the 'content' module and none of the others from CCK, but with the same resulting blank page.
Has anyone been successful with CCK 4.7.0 on a fresh drupal 4.7.3 install? The only other contributed modules installed are tinymce, image and sitemenu. This is a multisite configuration, but all of the modules (including CCK) were installed in [drupal root]/modules/contrib. I also tried putting cck in modules instead of my contrib subdirectory.
Further, can someone give me some pointers on troubleshooting further? Can I force CCK to think it hasn't been installed (i.e. re-run content.install when I enable the module)? Either way, where can I look for more detailed error output from PHP and MySQL?
