after i mention about Drupal vs Mambo , i getting some feedback and more putting effort for more research, i decided to use Drupal . i was playing with Drupal this few day, i found out that Drupal is not that easy as i think but its more intersting if i compare to Mambo .
So i was keep getting this error
user error: Access denied for user: ‘knight@localhost’ to database ‘drupal’
query: LOCK TABLES sequences WRITE in /htdocs/bla/includes/database.mysql.inc
althought it wont really affect anything. but is quite annoying, so i decide to debug this error, i found some solution at drupal site but it seem wierd to me because my mysql is on 4.02 but i can’t see the lock table option, then i saw an error msg on phpmyadmin, i know that i need to upgrade my privilege tables. althought my mysql is on version 4.02 but my privilege tables still on version 3.23.
so these are the step
- run this under shell mysql_fix_privilege_tables –password=root_password
- it show some success msg and some duplicate error msg which can ignore
- restart mysql server /etc/init.d/mysql restart
- login phpmyadmin now you can see the lock table option
- grant the option for the user and for the particular database
problem solve !
I’m oso developing few site using drupal. But not the normal drupal. it’s civicspace the enhanced drupal. Based on drupal 4.5.
It’s neat, clean and the installation/configuration is user friendly.
Most of the themes is not FF friendly. Need some tweaks.
