Drupal On Shared Server

Does anyone have Drupal 7.8 installed on a shared Linux server? I am trying to set up a Drupal Site and it doesn’t seem to be reading my .htaccess file correctly. Even thought phpinfo.php says the local value of magicquotes is set to off, the site is acting like they are on (we’ve had this happen on a Magento site also). Also, the .htaccess has register_globals set to off and I am receiving errors that I believe are caused by this being on.

If you have a successful Drupal Install on a shared server, please let me know any tweeks you’ve had to make with .htaccess or in any other way?

Thanks

Carol

Have a look at this thread regarding a similar problem.

Yes that should work, while we aren’t running mod_security anymore due to a change in the way we run PHP, the formatting and commands are still correct and valid.

4

Stephen I referenced that thread in my currently “on-hold” ticket. Can you please look into it and make sure the mod_security is set correctly? Ticket # BFU-78743-197

Thanks

it should not be on at all.

Stephen -

The site still isn’t working correctly. It’s acting like it’s not using the local values set. It now is giving an Hsphere error in the header

It looks like the drupal 7.x series ONLY works with mysql PDO drivers, this isn’t a good development in some ways. I am going to have to see what workarounds may be available.

I have since gotten a version of Drupal 6.22 up and running.

Drupal 7 needs php version 5.3 and your servers have 5.2.14. Are there plans to have php 5.3 available any time soon?

I have one more question about Drupal… On the 6.22 Drupal site we have, I am getting a Server Error 500 after every other administrative task that I perform. I hit refresh (1 or 2 times) and the page that I’m expecting will be displayed.

Is this due to traffic or some error in my install?

10

enable error logs and you can see what error the 500 is caused by, that is the best way to know.

11

Can these errors help figure out why I’m getting a 500 error?

Yes, send them in a ticket and linux team will check.

13

I’m seeing a LOT of those “incomplete header” errors in the logs for both of my Joomla sites on different servers.

Any word on when a fix is coming?

14

Just dropped one in on web7 for testing, once we have confirmed it is working we’ll do a rollout to others.

So far :flypig:

I am monitoring it like a hawk.
