This video shows how to set up an entire drupal development environment on Windows 7 including drush. Really awesome, if you’re into that sorta thing.

My New Year’s resolution is to go command line, so I’m installing drush on my test server.

today I learned that the source of my function.unserialize problems was that I had blindly set up my databases on my test site with the wrong collation. As a result, drupal put a utf8 character into the database when the collation was not set up for utf8.

So, when I import database files, i need to add this to the sql file.

create database dbname collate=utf8_general_ci;

This comment gives code you can enter into a block and see offending entries in the variable table that cause the function.unserialize error to occur.

Uploading new video tutorials to go with the updated catalog. Nice work @Brenda Zyrkowski!

This could be very useful and a real timesaver

Checking to see if my command-line patch took for the bookingsapi module. It did.
