Drupal 4.7.x

I just wanted to share the solution to a problem we had this morning where we couldn't log in to our site with any username or password.

We checked this forum and saw a number of threads with lots of back and forth on how to solve it, with suggestions ranging from commenting out user module code for session variable to reinstalling.

The cause of the problem: We had errors in the sessions table of our database (spotted using a 'select count from sessions')

The solution: run a a repair on that table.

Hope that helps someone, sometime.

hi guys,

i am a newbie / non tech dude who has been running my band website for over a year now with drupal...

this morning i found out that 99% of all pages on our site say "access denied - not allowed to access content"

now, later this afternoon it appears to be working again...

have i been hacked?

We're running a 4.7 drupal website with about 100,000 visits daily.

Last night we seemed to have a server problem that our host is still investigating.

Our server was rebooted, but our website is still either timing out, giving mysql errors involving the cache table or coming up to a blank page.

I can get root access, but can't get into phpmyadmin to repair the cache table.

Actually, I just got into phpmyadmin and tried to repair the cache table and the error message said not enough memory.

Hi Guys,

I am new to this software, Currently we are hosting our web site and we want to some changes to the web site.
The developer who created the web site used Drupal to code the web site. I have some experience in web programming. How to use this software to edit the source code.

Hello,

I am trying to make a social network site and i have gotten somewhat far considering i have only been working on this for 3 days but i want to know how to use this in a more custom manner

- I have customized the user_profile.tpl.php file to my liking and i want all the info displayed there.
- I have a custom home page of html and css...no drupal....yet..it allows me to login to my drupal account and autmatically sends me to my user account page.

What i would like but i do not know if this is possible is to be able to write my own custom html pages and have the user php code displayed there so that i would be able to bypass all of drupal theming and just use theri backend. I think that the problem is that i currently do not have user authentication to make my own user page and call straight from the mysql depending on the user.

Is what i am trying to do possible?

here is my user_profile.tpl.php page right now

  if($user->picture) {print theme('user_picture', $user);}
else {
print '<img src="/path/to/nopicture.gif" align="right" alt="This user hasn\'t posted a picture yet or whatelse" />';
}

Who I Am

This module seems uterly amazing. Could i ask if you can create a taxonomy with this? A category of some kind?

Or do you simply text your blog?

In which case how do you link the two? Ok so you need to do something to the moules you are texting to.

Anyway totally unbelievable.
