I am struggling with installing drupal 6.x on fedora 10. Browsed through all help avail and have a site up and running.

However any new modules I install under main modules dont show in the admin-modules page

I have checked the permissions of the new module and an existing module and I cant seem to see any difference

I downloaded admin_menu as the first module and compared that to aggregrator. I applied the proper permissions including group and user

This is what i have for "ls-l"

drwxrwxrwx 5 apacheuser apache 4096 ..... admin_menu
drwxrwxrwx 2 apacheuser apache 4096 ..... aggregrator

admin_menu is not avail but aggregraotr is

What else do i need to do to make it show in the list of modules

Sounds strange... since I never heard of this kind of problem, so gotta think of anything that might possibly cause troubles...

Which folder do you refer to as "the main modules folder"?

Though it might not be the cause of your issue, It's much recommended to use sites/default/modules ore sites/all/modules as your modules folder, rather than /modules. If you're using /modules, I'd recommend to at least try changing it, just in case...

so happened that an earlier untarring operation put files inder /html

i later then created a alia to new subfolder somwhere else when i was dropping all modules

now that i figured whihc drupal installation it was using everything is good.

what a dumb mistake
