Drupal under ORACLE 9i/10g - a call for volunteer testers.

Hello all. This topic serves as both an announcement and a call for volunteers.

After seeing numerous calls and wishes for Drupal to be seen to run with an ORACLE back end, I decided to have a bash at the task. A few months ago I got stuck in and, after some work, was finally pleased to see Core Drupal 4.7 and the ORACLE 9i/10g platform cuddling up to each other. Having spent a fair amount of time in the testing phase, I found the results to be favourable and was very pleasantly surprised to see that, performance-wise, it wasn't being left to eat the dust left behind by a similar Drupal installation running under MySQL. I have written a few paragraphs about my thoughts here.

change db connection

Hi everyone
after installing and configuring my site in localhost (with easy php) every works great. Now i want to publish it on the web. I've just open a free account in awardspace.com (php hosting and mysql). They give me a database name that i can't change, same thing for username and password. Where can i change the settings for the connection to the database (put the right url, name, account for the db)? Settings.php? database.mysql.inc (inside includes)?
thanks Luca

mysql and the CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE privilege

Hey guys,

I am (fairly) new to drupal, when I reccomended for my sporting organisation to go with a specific hosting company I didn't do my research properly. My search box didnt work, because my hosting provider does not give out the mysql CREATE_TEMPORARY_TABLES right/permission.
I tried using trip_search. I didnt like it. I tried some patches from other people and couldnt get it to fly without other problems.

I 'invented' a solution: remove drupals db_query_temporary function and replace it with my own.

using subqueries

Does anyone know the recommendation on using subqueries in drupal modules? Since they're not supported before mysql 4.1 I'm not sure if it's something that should be avoided, or is ok as long as it's noted...
