I have two drupal 4.6 sites, one default and one sub each with thier own MySQL DB running on a Linux system, Apache2 with PHP5. When I attempted to put the quotes 4.6 module in sites/sub.domain.org/modules/ it seemed to be working and I was able to enable the feature, once I enabled however it I was no longer able to access admin/modules. No error, the browser would just hold the present page and report done. The only way that I was able to resolve the issue was to remove the quotes module completely. I did try moving it up to drupal/modules but that did not help. Even after deleting it I was still not able to access admin/modules. After some time deleting cache files, temp files restarting apache, logging in and out and trying to pick out the bad tables I gave up and just wiped the sub-sites DB and reloaded the tables. admin/modules is working agian.

Then I tried to get it going on the default site. Even before I even tried installing it I lost access to admin/modules. I deleted the modules/quotes folder and it is working again without having to delete the DB.

This is likely a memory limit issue. When you reach a critical mass of modules, you can hit the default 8MB memory buffer.

The updated handbook addresses three possible fixes here:
