Drupal
Submitted by Nomad on Thu, 08/28/2008 - 22:41.
I just installed Drupal using Fantastico.
But I am not able to find any .htaccess files or httpd.conf file where i can disable this register_globals and the status report reads the error message as given below.
register_globals is enabled. Drupal requires this configuration directive to be disabled. Your site may not be secure when register_globals is enabled. The PHP manual has instructions for how to change configuration settings.
Can someone help me out with this?
and also i am not sure what this is - Drupal core update status -
There is a security update available for your version of Drupal. To ensure the security of your server, you should update immediately! See the available updates page for more information.
Drupal update, register_globals and Fantastico
Hi there,
If you do not find the .htaccess file in your document root directory you can create one. Just create a text file and save it as .htaccess. If you are allowed to override Apache web server and php settings you can use a simple rule in your .htaccess file:
php_flag register_globals OffDrupal 6.X version has the update status feature in core. Drupal checks if there are any updates available for the software and its modules from drupal.org and notifies the administrator about available updates. The fastest way to keep current is to install the updates yourself rather than relying on tools like Fantastico.
With warm regards,
Sudheer
