For example, i need to apply patch as described in issue here: http://drupal.org/node/117917

WHere do i start?

Thanks

The pointers in other

Posted by vjordan on February 16, 2007 at 3:14pm

The pointers in other comments posted above should give you enough information to deal with most regular patches. But the patch you are referring to here isn't really a code patch (see webchick's comment #27 on the page). It's more detailed documentation around the behaviour for setting and resetting cookies. The patch gives some documentation and a template code line for an additional php setting which you'll need to adapt to your particular installation.

What you need to do in this situation is read the patch and webchick's comment #27 carefully and understand the directions that are being given. To see if this will fix your situation add the ini_set line in your setting.php.

It's basically one line - I'd hand-edit it into my settings.php with a text editor if I was trying to apply it.
