Set Civicrm 2.0.4 to sites/default/modules
June 12, 2008, 01:46:19 am
Hi all,

I made a new install of civicrm 2.0.4 on a drupal 5.2 install. By default the civicrm installer installs the module in sites/all/modules. But all my other drupal modules are in sites/default/modules. I want to the civicrm files in this directory to.

I modified some settings files to go to sites/default/modules and this seems to work, but it is still depending on a file folder in the root of my site for the files/civicrm/upload/custom. I can't find the settings for this last one.

Can some one please give me a list of files i need to edit to get all files of civicrm in sites/default/modules and sites/default/files/
or point me to some documentation.

Regards,
Rens

If you mean Drupal 6.2 – CiviCRM 2.0 doesn’t work with Drupal 6 (CiviCRM 2.1 will, though). If you indeed mean Drupal 5, you should use Drupal 5.7.

By default the civicrm installer installs the module in sites/all/modules.

This is correct; sites/all ‘should be used to place downloaded and custom modules and themes which are common to all sites’ (see sites/all/README.txt).

The sites/default directory should be used for the default settings.php file, not for modules, themes, etc.

The places where CiviCRM stores its files is set in Administer CiviCRM → Global Settings → Directories.
