Drupal is up and running but how do I ...?

chatbox makes clicking sound

I don't have access to windows machines this weekend so I cannot personally check this out. But I just added chatbox to a new 4.7.1 site and the client says there is a clicking sound with chatbox. This was with IE. I assume it is when it refreshes the screen but not sure.
At any rate she found the sound annoying. I don't hear a thing on debian/firefox.

Can I turn the sound off? Is there supposed to be sound?

Reset the cache table?

Hello, I've had a trouble yesterday and I truncated the cache table, ie. EMPTIED it, not DROPPED.

But now I can't access my website anymore:
http://www.senserely.com

I can't access the login page or the admin page, I can use
http://www.senserely.com/user OR
http://www.senserely.com/?q=user

the result is the same: PAGE NOT FOUND

Clean URL, Hosting, file system checks

I requested a rewrite from my hosting company and they responded below.

One basic rule to be aware of when requesting a rewrite: Please note
that we will not allow rewrites that do any file system checks or
adjustments.

The drupal clean url functionality includes file system checks, which is
why it won't work in our environment. Here's the chunk from that drupal
link you sent in for the clean url functionality:

attachment and filemanager fails if "files" directory is moved

Hi, I wasn't sure if this should be put as an issue in either attachment or filemanager module. I use 4.7.1 and was upgrading to 4.7.2 when I encountered this problem:

1) attach a file, say, file_A, to a node
1) Copy the 'files' folder to any other folder in Drupal
2) Delete the original 'files' folder
3) Move the copied 'files' folder back (This is done, for instance, when you do a Drupal upgrade)

Now, if you try to delete file_A, it says

"warning: unlink(/.../sites/default/files/active/0/file_A): Permission denied in /.../includes/file.inc on line 467."

Also, when you try to upload file_B using the attachment module, when you click 'add' the following error appears:

"The selected file /tmp/tmp_bwK8sT could not be uploaded, because the destination /.../sites/default/files/working/0/file_B is not properly configured.
Error saving upload to filestore. "

Note that I use site specific 'files' folders.

This is really weird, because I checked the permissions, and the copied 'files' folder has the same permissions as the original one, but it just does not work.

A partial solution seems to be that you delete the "files/active" and "files/working" folders, then upload an attachment. The filemanager module will automatically recreate the folders and all will work. This has the big disadvantage of losing all your previous attachments though.

Even more oddly, this error does not occur if you MOVE (not copy) the 'files" folder to another location, then MOVE it back.

Nodes are taking away my nav

Hi

I am new to Drupal, and I'm still working out whether it can do what I want. In particular, I want to customise different parts of a website with different navigation. I know that Drupal can do this. The problem arises if e.g. I want to have a particular forum in a particular area (with its own navigation). Because of the way Drupal works - with nodes - this means that if somebody posts something on to the forum, it will take them away from the particular area they were in - to a node - taking away the specific navigation for that area with it. Is there any way around this?

Site broken :s

Last weekend I updated my Drupal sites from 4.6.8 to 4.7.1, I ran itno a few bugs with the add ons I had installed and fixed those by removing those modules. All was fine till last night. I changed link in one of the blocks we use and then another person logged onto the site. He was having strange issues as "page not found" etc, and we decided to drop his account and recreate it as I could do all he was trying.

He still had issues but I decided to head to bed. I woke up today to find an email form him with the error he was now receiving when he went to the site. I checked and I could still do everything. I then went and changed a small thing in my signature and I was hit with the same issues. THe problem is that the menu isn't being dispalyed so I can't reach the admin area of the site anymore (if I type in the direct url I get his with the error:

* warning: array_keys(): The first argument should be an array in /homepages/37/d108228065/htdocs/llt-4.7.1/includes/menu.inc on line 1198.
* warning: Wrong parameter count for min() in /homepages/37/d108228065/htdocs/llt-4.7.1/includes/menu.inc on line 1198.

Page not found

Half of the side bars get generated but that is about it. I disabled the profile module using phpmyadmin as I thought that might be the cuplret... but I still can't access the site.

This morning (before I posted this) I noticed 4.7.2 had been released, so I applied the patch to my site in an attempt to fix the issues....
