IIS 5.0
Windows 2000 Server
PHP 4.3.10
MySQL 4.1.9

I've recently installed Drupal 4.5.2 and had little trouble in getting it setup. However, I've discovered several problems that I'm hoping someone might be able to help me out with.

Issue #1 - No Recent Posts
When I'm logged in as the administrator and click on the "recent posts" link in my navigation pane, I'm not shown any of either my recent posts or all recent posts. However, it does show that there are two pages so I can click next page and last page. It's just strange that nothing is showing up. Anyone have an idea what might be causing this?

Issue #2 - Duplicate index.php default links
I found a strange problem in my vanilla installation of Drupal. The links that are automatically generated at put at the top of the page (i.e., home, archives, blogs, search) are incorrect. The actual link duplicates the index.php and search parameter as follows:

http://www.mydomain.com/weblog/index.php?q=index.php?q=archive

It seems to stem from a problem in common.inc, but I can't seem to fix the problem. This is similiar to a forum post http://drupal.org/node/15048.

If anyone can help, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks ahead of time!

Did you work out what was going wrong with No Recent Posts? I have the same problem with my 4.5 installation. It worked fine with 4.3 before I upgraded (and strangely still shows new comments to existing posts).

I found this bug report http://drupal.org/node/15748 which seems to address this problem.

Note that I'm running Linux with PHP and MySQL - not IIS.

Missed your post previously.

1. For recent posts, are you running cron.php?

2. I remember this being an issue with some of the phpTemplate based themes (box_grey) an am trying to remember if I saw it anywhere else. I run Win2K3/IIS6
