I was unable to migrate any site that I had previously created by restoring the database to a newly created Quickstart site. I tried to migrate using the restore function from Back and Migrate but it wasn't successful. Also, I tried restoring the database from phpMyAdmin but that was unsuccessful as well. When I tried to open the site from Firefox I got the following error message: Warning: require_once(/home/quickstart/websites/ocls.dev/includes/bootstrap.inc): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/quickstart/websites/ocls.dev/index.php on line 19 Call Stack: 0.0007 328392 1. {main}() /home/quickstart/websites/ocls.dev/index.php:0 Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required '/home/quickstart/websites/ocls.dev/includes/bootstrap.inc' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear') in /home/quickstart/websites/ocls.dev/index.php on line 19 Call Stack: 0.0007 328392 1. {main}() /home/quickstart/websites/ocls.dev/index.php:0. The work-around is to issue the following command from the websites directory chmod -R a+rX. This appears to be an intermittent problem as another drupal developer was able to restore his database to a new Quickstart site without receiving any error message.

unsure what this means?!?! to be clear... I'm volunteering my time.

it seems this is not a real problem as you know of someone else that was able to succeed. either way, I dont understand what you wrote. please submit a legible request and I will try to help... the current request without legible formatting is unacceptable.

This problem can probably be closed as it was intermittent, since another Drupal developer couldn't reproduce it. It appears to have been some kind of permissions problem as I was able to resolve the problem by issuing a chmod -R a+rX command. You can disregard it. Thanks anyway!

@cgroche - I appreciate the reply, and hope I didn't come across too harsh in my first reply... (re-reading it I feel I was too short/terse) ... but I really just couldn't understand the original issue because I wasn't sure how to parse the text you submitted.

On any future issues, may I suggest you try to use line breaks and maybe even <code> or <blockquote> tags to help highlight or separate output code from written text. If you take the time to help your reader, I suspect you'll find more people that would be happy to help.

lastly, you may already know this but in case you dont, you might check out drush help qf as another easy way to fix permissions problems with drupal sites using drush/quickstart.
