    The first thing I’d do is update to the latest version of Drupal Core. The error message you are seeing is coming from core, but could be from a contrib module. Update all your modules if any are as outdated as your Drupal core is. There are security issues in Drupal 7.8 and other issues which might affect your situation could well have been resolved. The current version of Drupal is 7.12 and a lot has been fixed since Drupal 7.8, which was released about 6 months ago, so you definitely want to upgrade core. Is it also possible that you are running different versions of core on the different machines? If so, the database might not be compatible, especially if you are taking a newer database (more recent modules and core) and loading it into a system with older modules/core.

    After also updating other contrib modules and running update.php at appropriate times, if your problem still persists, you might want to use the “divide and conquer” method to identify which module is actually responsible. Remove groups of contrib modules and see where the problem disappears, then narrow it down to which one is causing the problem. It could also be a compatibility issue or configuration problem. Or you might have modules where the code has been updated, but update.php hasn’t been run so the database isn’t what it should be. You can also use tools such as the Devel module to try to track down issues, but it depends on how “broken” your site is. If you are getting “fatal errors”, then you might first want to see what you can do to get past that.

    I also notice you need to properly set the permissions/ownership of your files directory so that CSS caching can take place (among other tasks the webserver may be trying to do and which could also be involved in errors you are experiencing), even if not at the root of the “fatal errors”.

    Hope that helps some… troubleshooting can be a pain sometimes.
