Server Crash - URLs messed up after restore - /node/7 instead of /?q=node/7

tps - November 8, 2009 - 13:59

Dear All

I had a server crash.

Server has been reinstalled and mysql data restored.

When I bring up my Drupal site the first page is ok.

When clicking a menupoint I always get "The page cannot be found"

I note that the link on the menu point says ie. /node/7.

If I manually type in /?q=node/7 then the page is shown ok

What did I miss in the restore process after the server crash?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

lm_paypal subscribers status eot

sumaiyajaved - November 8, 2009 - 08:36

I am using lm_paypal subscriptions to sell user role "friend". I have created three subscriptions single, couple and family, they differ in price only.

Now the subscriptions works fine at times but at other times the user role does not upgrade to "friend" and in the lm_paypal subscriber his/her status is "eot".

In the lm_paypal saved ipns there is no difference between the successful and unsuccessful subscribers but the logs generate the following:

Note: That the payment is successful in the paypal

There is a Drupal package in Ubuntu, so Drupal install on Ubuntu is just this line
sudo apt-get install drupal6

Then - at the time of writing this post - some more steps are necessary to get Drupal running:

  1. enable the rewrite module and restart Apache:
  2. sudo a2enmod rewrite
    sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

  3. change the rewrite base in /etc/drupal/6/htaccess
  4. from this one:
    # RewriteBase /drupal
    to this:
    RewriteBase /drupal6
    sudo sed -i 's/# RewriteBase \/drupal/ RewriteBase \/drupal6/' /etc/drupal/6/htaccess

  5. optional: increase PHP memory:
  6. sudo sed -i 's/memory_limit = 16M/memory_limit = 64M/' /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini

  7. open your browser and start the install process of Drupal:
  8. http://www.example.com/drupal6/install.php

embedded video field module and teaser

doktorrr - November 7, 2009 - 16:47

I use emfield module and it's great. I want to create block view with last 5 video like teaser list. In content type(display field - teaser) I use option thumbnail image. So when I create my block in this block I see Teaser(picture and text) with thumbnail image of youtube content.
I would like to see only thumbnail image without teaser(picture and text). How to do it?

Disapearing Content/ Whole Section Gone Missing

A whole section of my site disappeared yesterday. On my home page and each major city section of my site there was a 'featured article' area at the top of the page that had 5 scrolling articles. It has disappeared. My web designer has been trying to figure this out but can't see anything wrong with the latest new content added (which was a normal article). No settings have been changed by her or me.

Anyone had this type of issue before? If it helps here is a link to my site home page http://www.52perfectdays.com/ . Right above the blog section is where the main articles should be showing up.

Thanks.
