Troubleshooting
Color module not working
File permissions has to be set to public !
Uploading files is not visible in the edit area
Check "content types" (german: Inhaltstypen) from the menu and activate the appropriate feature for the given content type (e.g. page, articel, blog, ...)
Contact form
* The contact form module has an entry in the "navigation" (!) menu which is NOT aktivated by default. Simply pput it e.g. into the secondary links.
PHP memory mimits
There are two ways to do this:
1. locally in your drupal installation
If error messages occur about memory limit when you try to install modules then edit sites/default/settings.php and add the following line:
ini_set('memory_limit', '24M');
This sets memory limit on a per site basis.
The other way is to edit serverwide (!) apache's /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini and customize the value there. Image processing needs - for drupal 6 - a minimal amount of 96M memory size!
memory_limit = 96M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (16MB)
2. server wide in php.ini
You can also set the memory limit server wide in the php.ini file of your webserver.
You can find it in the /etc/php5/apache2 directory.
Not satisfied with Translation (.po files)
Edit the .po files for the translation and add them via the translation module.
You can also add the following module which filters active content:
Alter Strings
Go to Setting->Translation and click to the Search button.
Search for
@username's blog
and add your own translation.
Cron
On your sit enable cron
crontab -e -u www-data
and enter a line like (45 runs every hour)
# m h dom mon dow command 45 * * * * /usr/bin/lynx -source http://example.com/cron.php
or use wget to achieve the same:
0 * * * * wget -O - -q -t 1 http://www.example.com/cron.php
