Running Drupal behind Reverse Proxy Server
We are having issues with session persistence in Drupal when using the Pound reverse proxy server. Currently, we are losing our session when clicking on a link to add a comment to a node for subdomains only. This issue (losing our session) does not happen when on the main domain (www.example.com), but only when on subdomains (sub1.example.com and sub2.example.com).
Our current environment has the Pound reverse proxy server in front of two Drupal web servers that are each connected to an NFS mount where the Drupal site code exists.
Read moreSite very slow, when Boost installed, getting errors with taxonomy
Hi,
My drupal site is really slow. It's on a shared host, so I installed Boost as a possible solution(it rocks too). I could get faster page loads after installing, and it worked for anonymous users well. But when I try to post content (/node/add/*) which has taxonomy enabled, I get "invalid argument for each()..." Error from taxonomy.Module. I couldn't figure out what went wrong. So I disabled Boost. Problem solved, low performance

This should definitely not be the way to do this !!!!!
So far I have been developing sites on my local machine and dumping all the files + database to my live server after the development is done. These were some small projects for which I used some contributed modules and wrote some small modules for them.
Now I have a requirement to provide some changes and updates to my live projects. The only way I can do it now is to keep working on my local site and keep a track of all the steps I have performed. Once I am done with the local site perform the same steps on live server.
Definitely this should not be the way to do this !!!!!
Read moreMinimum Requirements for a Basic Server Setup - Recommendations?
Hi everyone,
I'm thinking of purchasing a VPS package and I have a few different hardware configurations I can choose from.
I'm going to host around 20 small sites with low traffic.
This is what I can afford:
- One dedicated CPU core
- 1024 Ram
- 10GB Storage
- 10Mbit/sec Unmeted bandwith
- Control Panel: cPanel/DirecAdmin
- Centos, Debian, Ubuntu... Which is best?
Will this work well? Would you add or cut somewhere?
Thanks,
Nimrod
Best caching for thousands of authenticated users?
Hi.
Currently I'm developing drupal page (as knowing drupal on medium+ level) for ONLY authenticated users.
Aim is to get even more than 1 mln loged in users.
Site will be quite simple. Users can add some nodes, that are visible ONLY for their friends. Users can search (currenlty using views filter) for a node (still ONLY their friends nodes), and can watch others friends profile (with nodes friend submitted).
I think that all page should be cached exept searching result. And if a user submitted a new node his profile should be updated (cache cleared).
New Mercury 1.2 install instructions: When available??
According to this post: http://groups.drupal.org/node/100624#comment-326369 ,
there should be vastly simplified instructions for installing Mercury on a VPS somewhere around mid-November.
Of course, it's December now. Have I missed the post?? Just wondering when the info might become available. I'm ready to create a Linode Mercury install with Ubuntu 9.10 (for PHP compatibility) but the Linode stackscript is over 6 months old now.
I think it would be better to install manually, just to understand the process.
Will these instructions be available soon?? Thanks!
Read moreOptimizing my site (any advice appreciated)
I recently converted a somewhat big site to Drupal 6.
We currently have:
~13,000 registered users, usually anywhere from 50 - 100 online at a time.
~23,000 nodes
~380,000 comments
I'm running on a VPS with 4gb ram, 200 gb disk space.
I have drupal page compression enabled, optimize css and js enabled.
My host has installed xcache for me.
I really love the drupal framework but my users are very displeased at my current speeds.
Some of the complaints I have received are:
"Speed- slooooooooooow. Agonizingly slooooooooow. 20+ seconds per click."
