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

files directory

I'm not really convinced that this goes here, but anyway...

I really don't understand this behaviour and hope you can explain: when I go into my cPanel and try to open the 'files' folder located at /user/public_html/drupal/files it sends me up to the top level folder (/user). I can't imagine why this would happen...is it supposed to? I don't think so, as I am attempting to create a subdirectory in that folder (as per the instructions in administer/users) for user images. So what gives, then?

Thanks,

How to troubleshoot image size problem?

Hi, from this topic: http://drupal.org/node/26532 it appears that the image limit size is not available in image module for version 4.6.

A user of mine says she gets a Too-Large error message from Drupal 4.6 even for 20kb image.

If there's no way to set the image size limit...

1. What is the default limit? Is there any?

2. How would I troubleshoot the above issue (user getting too-large error msg)?

thanks in advance.

File Manager - Changing Location after site has been in use

Although the page clearly states

Changing this location after the site has been in use will cause problems so only change this setting on an existing site if you know what you are doing.

Is there any way I can change the path?
Earlier my site was on root and now I have changed it to /drupal however all the posts still point to the files under root (ie /files/active/....) and all the new uploaded are stored in /drupal/files/active/.....
Is there any way I can fix this problem. Other than creating the site all over again?

My tabs just disappeared ?????

This is really weird.
I've got 2 4.6.5 drupal sites on the same server.
They use different db's and are in different directories.
(though they do use the same Mysql and apache server)

BOTH sites suddenly stopped diplaying "View" and "Edit" tabs, displaying list item style links instead; and the theme on one (chameleon, not modified) is now completely scrambled.

I was working on a new block for one of the sites when this happened, and I've since removed it... though I don't understand how that could affect both sites.

Parse error in configuring Front_page

I have installed the fonrt_page module, and saved my old html as the preferred frontpage, but get the following error when testing. Admitting my steep learning curve here...what does it mean? what do I do?

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/irmstrat/public_html/includes/common.inc(1857) : eval()'d code on line 1

Thx!

How do I recover my Lost My Log-in & Admin Blocks

This seems stupid, but maybe the answer can help others as well as myself.

I went into the admin module and turned-off the "navigate" module.

Of course, that meant, as I discovered, when I view my site, it does not display the Admin Menu choice nor the Log-in box. So, now I cannot enter the Administration module to turn the blocks back on.

Can someone tell me how to do this, please?

Thanks in advance.
