Checking QDrupal's Pulse

Hello Fellow QCubed Bootstrappers ("QDrupal People"),

I'm working on a Drupal project and recently identified a need to leverage some better automation in the area of generating models of off external schemas. I initially started a search on ORM's, one of which was QCodo and took a liking to its powerful code generation. Shortly thereafter, I stumbled into QDrupal and QCubed and made a commitment to leverage them for my Drupal project. With an initial 80 hour journey into the QDrupal project and some installation battles, I came to the conclusion that this project deserves much more attention and has the potential for greater usage than what is currently captured at drupal.org (at the time of this writing, low to mid teens based on sites sending update statuses).

After reaching out to a few members of the core team, it was suggested that I post a new topic on this forum and find out if anyone would like to see QDrupal get a heart transplant? Who out there is currently using QDrupal and would like to see a new version based off of the latest QCubed release v2.0.1?

Respond back to this forum with your thoughts and any suggestions. How about a code name for this project? I'll risk mockery and make the first suggestion-

"Project QDOM" - QDrupal Operation Migration
- QDrupal being the subject
- Operation Migration because we're bootstrapping to the latest version of QCubed
- Perhaps, QDOM gives connotation to "QDrupal over QCubed's latest jQuery party"?? I told you I was going to risk mockery..

Thanks for reading,

Migrating sites to a different server

I have recently moved several website developed using qcodo to a different server. The moving was made using the account import function of CPanel which (as far as I understand) is similar to a restore from backup on the same server - everything should be exactly the same.

After moving the sites, the only page shown was the index, no matter what link you clicked. I've managed to make children of index show, but children of children no. The site uses some URL rewriting and the rendering engine breaks when it has to display a page that is two levels deep.

I am average with PHP, but not with QCodo. The developer who created the websites is no longer with us and I've been unable to find somebody else familiar with qcodo. I can't really figure it our if it's a qcodo problem or a server settings problem.

One other symptom (though easily fixed) was that right after the move, qcodo no longer found the connector for mysql5 and I had to switch it to mysql4 (the database connection, not the database itself).

I can provide access to the site's files and database, as this would be far more efficient than answering questions on the server settings&all.

I am also willing to pay someone for solving this - it's more a cry for help than an actual job offer and that is why I posted here instead of Jobs.

Thank you,
Dinu
