When I try to edit the primary links ( admin/build/menu-customize/primary-links ), I get a fatal error. I'm having trouble figuring out what caused it, if i caused it, etc. It was working recently. Can anyone help? Here's the full error:

ok, i know what caused it. to recreate:

  1. In a custom menu, add a link with an anchor thing in the path, for example: #gallery
  2. Save it
  3. Edit it to a regular path such as "section/galleries" (assuming that's a valid path).
  4. Save it. Already there's a problem, as the "#" part is added to the end of the path on your new link.
  5. While trying to get rid of that "#" part, I eventually hand-edited the database (so yes, i was being reckless there)

That's when the menu admin page started creating errors. What eventually fixed it was editing the "options" field for that link in the "menu_links" table so something typical like a:1:{s:10:"attributes";a:1:{s:5:"title";s:0:"";}}

I'm guessing this is an issue with how Drupal's core updates edited menu links. I'm using Drupal 6.10

Hi

I have the same problem, since I've been reading about this problem I think there is one of my custom modules that is not correctly migrated to drupal 6, but I don't know which one ¿can you tell me what to do for getting the "call Stack" you have"?

Thanks in advance

How can I fix this problem without botching around within the MySQL Database?!

I updated my Drupal Installation several times to keep it up to date and so secure! Now having installed 6.12.
