Post installation

Hi,

Has anyone experienced a similar problem to the problem outlined below?

Normally this would not be a Drupal issue, but possibly apache / php / mysql. However, the times of the core.x files coincide within a few minute(s) after the drupal cron.php file is executed.

Here is a plain-vanilla Drupal 4.7.1 site. Occasionally a kernel failure on the hosting server with the related core dump on the root dir of the site would occur. This seems to coincide with the point at which cron.php is being executed on the server. (The Hosting co is also investigating this issue.) Over this period I have gone from Drupal 4.7 RC 1 to 3 to Drupal 4.7 to Drupal 4.7.1. Everytime the upgrade files are uploaded over completely erased directories with the exception of Sites and Files. Thus it is unlikely to be corrupted files or code.

Operating system Linux
Kernel version	2.6.9-34.106
Apache version 1.3.34 (Unix)
PHP version	4.4.1
MySQL version	4.1.14

Hello

I have a site with dynamic content with URLs such as /country_details?countryID=100

Is there any way I can change this URL to country_details/100 so that google etc find it easier to crawl?

Thanks

Hi, is there a way to do that? Perhaps with a php snippet, but which one? I would like some administration blocks to be viewable only for some people...

Thanks

I ahd drupal 4.7.1 going along nicely and thought I'd play with the frontpage module. Inserted some html in the body, set it to full , and had a look. Right at that moment , a power failure in the hills where I live and now I am logged out with a html page and no login . Can someone please suggest how I might salvage this stuation. I do have shell access , but cant see how I might get to the administer settings to at least revert back.
Thanks for your time.

I successfully installed drupal, its up and running, but i get a warning message when i'm in settings under administer. warning: mkdir() [function.mkdir]; Permission denied in /srv/www/incluces/file.inc on line 91
-The directory files does not exist.

I'm not sure what the problem is because the file does exist and i'm sure i have permission to access the file. Can anyone help? Thank you

I'm having some problems with custom menus. I create a menu and some items. Then I'll enable the block and the menu appears where expected. However, when I switch to any other user the menu doesn't appear. If I add a user to the admin role the menu appears. If I remove them from the admin role it continues to appear.

A second quirk - once the menu block has been activated it will appear even if I deactivate the block.

What's going on? Any insight would be appreciated.
