Huge Menu doesn't accept changes

The problem was that my host had a limit of 200 variables per post,
and long menus with more variables were being rejected. The same started
happening on the Permissions page, since I had a lot of roles and
content types.

I bumped up suhosin.post.max_vars and suhosin.request.max_vars from 200 to 2048 on the server, and now it works.

If your host doesn't have a control panel where you can do this, add the following to your php.ini:
suhosin.post.max_vars = 2048
suhosin.request.max_vars = 2048

Problems calling cron.php

We recently spotted an error returned from cron.php

PHP Warning:  include_once(): Unable to access ./includes/bootstrap.inc
in /var/www/vhosts/.../httpdocs/cron.php on line 9

The following tweak helped: Create a new file "cron-tweak.php" and point the crontask towards it. Insert the following lines:

<?PHP

$doc_root = dirname($_SERVER["SCRIPT_FILENAME"]);
chdir($doc_root);

include_once './cron-ori.php';
print "cron completed";
?>

MySQL “replace” is your friend

Ever had to change the filepath in the files-table after some path restructures?  MySQL “replace” is your friend:

update files set filepath = replace(filepath, 'sites/oldpath/files/','sites/newpath/files/');
