After trying to install html mail (and associated modules) I have been unable to create or edit content. Also access on the admin page is limited to only a few functions. I cannot clear cache, update permissions. (and most other tasks are not working) Otherwise the site is working. After I log in create content takes me to blank page, and the edit tab does not show on any pages/ stories. I think the data base may have been corrupted. Assuming this is the problem should I reinstall drupal or try and fix the data base.

thanks in advance

Hi Michael,

I am wondering if you are able to run update.php. Perhaps the new modules require DB schema changes and are causing errors without them.

Also, you might take a look at this page on white screen of death errors:

http://drupal.org/node/158043

Often going through your web server logs is a first step toward finding the error that is occurring. With that knowledge you may be able to find the specific module that caused the issue.

Hope that helps!

John

Hi John thanks for your reply. I had tried update.php with no luck. I ended up getting my provider to install the site back up. Everything ok. I think I was rushing module installation

thanks again Michael
