Ottawa

We encourage users to post events happening in the community to the community events group on https://www.drupal.org.

Welcome to the Drupal Ottawa User Group. We will use this group to develop the Drupal community in Ottawa, to plan local events (DrupalCamps, informal get-togethers, etc.) and to share success stories and planned / completed drupal implementations. Public servants (this is Ottawa after all) interested in deploying bilingual / Common Look & Feel compliant governmental web sites will find colleagues in this group facing the same challenges related to the introduction of drupal in the federal government.

Batch process stuck on dev site

Hi,

I haven't seen this one before. I have a site in development that won't get past the "initializing" phase of a batch process. Like updating translations after a module install.

Clearing the cache doesn't seem to work.

Any ideas? I'm not finding much info online.

Thanks!

6 batch jobs in the queue! ... see "batch phpMyAdmin 4 8 5.png" attachment.

Drupal 8 hosting that supports Composer

Hi,

I'm looking for inexpensive (~25$ a month?) Drupal 8 hosting options that support Composer for a small non-profit?

Currently the organization is on shared hosting at Bluehost, which supports Composer, but requires serving out of public_html, which doesn't play well with Composer's sub-folders.

Helpful tech support would be a bonus. Reliable backups too..

Thanks for any suggestions,

Michael
