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

Forums in 4.4.0: can they be merged?

We just began using Drupal, and many of our users so far are new to threaded discussion systems. We have two forums that should be one. Is there a way to merge them so that they either both have the same parent node forum or that a branch that a user created can be incorporated into the main forum created for the discussion? Perhaps I should not allow registered users but only moderators to create forums?

Wiki module under 4.4

The Wiki module supposedly supports footnotes. I've seen documentation using that support, but haven't been able to get it working on my site. I'm running 4.4CVS with updates of all the latest modules. I've tried turning off other filters, reordering, and other obvious stuff. [1]

4.4 SESSID Cookies Broke?

So I've got some 4.4 sites and some 4.2.x sites running on the same box. The 4.4 sites are setting good-looking PHPSESSID cookies which should be valid for three weeks, yet if I quit my browser and reload I get no automagic login love.

I've verefied this with Firefox, Safari and IE(on winXP). I've looked at both sites phpinfo(), and the pertinent results seem to be good:

session.cache_expire	200000
session.cache_limiter	no value
session.cookie_domain	no value
session.cookie_lifetime	2000000
session.cookie_path	/
session.cookie_secure	Off
session.entropy_file	no value
session.entropy_length	0
session.gc_divisor	1000
session.gc_maxlifetime	200000

Any ideas?

Account avatars

I've just u/g to 4.4 and it's working well. I am still defining and completing my site locally.
I have the default avatar showing for comments and nodes, but cannot get avatars to work with each account. Every time I browse and choose one, it is created in the correct /files/avatars subfolders, but as soon as I save the settings , the box goes blank and the default avatar is not replaced. If i remove the default avatar, I just get a text link to 'edit account'

unable to add content like page, story etc

Hi

I recently installed drupal 4.4.0 on my local server (UniServer 3.0). The install did went in smoothly (i think) but i havent been able to add any content either as admin or as a user even tho the options are checked. When i click on the add content link and then say the page or story link all i get is a blank page

Any ideas on whats up?

Constant segfaults - any ideas?

A reboot seems to help, but then the segfaults starting getting more and more frequent. This only affects database-backed code (i.e. all my Drupal installs). I'm on a dedicated RH 7.2 server with Apache-FP, PHP 4.3.4, and MySQL. All the Drupal sites are name-based virtual hosts running 4.4. Here is my phpinfo output, and here's an example of some recent segfaults.

[Fri Apr 16 13:14:39 2004] [notice] child pid 18668 exit signal Segmentation fault (11)
[Fri Apr 16 13:14:41 2004] [notice] child pid 18716 exit signal Segmentation fault (11)
[Fri Apr 16 13:14:55 2004] [notice] child pid 18724 exit signal Segmentation fault (11)
[Fri Apr 16 13:15:54 2004] [notice] child pid 18636 exit signal Segmentation fault (11)
[Fri Apr 16 13:16:05 2004] [notice] child pid 18640 exit signal Segmentation fault (11)

I'm also getting occasional out of memory errors (which I also got on my old, shared host as well, so I'm not too worried about that).

Any ideas? An upgrade from an earlier version of PHP helped a bit, but the only other hints I've seen while Googling seem to involve something to do with virtual hosts.
