Installing Drupal

Hi,

I am having the following issue:

When I create my multisite, I have one database and I want to share some tables like users, sessions, etc. For some reason, the shared tables are only created for the shared_ prefix, and my second_site, but not mydefaultsite. But I want those table to be created for each site as well.

Another problem that I am facing is that even if I have the shared_users and secondsite_users, when I create an user in my default site, it does not appear for my seconsdite. And I need to share users.

Fresh clean install of 8.6.1 when I go into site information i get this error(turned error checking and messages on):

I am getting a strange error during a drupal install. Yes it does have permissions, correct info and plenty of disk space. 

Installing:Error: A database query has failed. is the entered database information correct? does the account have available disk space?

Drupal v8.6.0 has failed to install and the details of the failure have been logged.

Technical error:
Error: A database query has failed. Is the entered database information correct? Does the account have available disk space?

Is there an active Chef cookbook available to use for standing up / deployment of a Drupal site? Most of the projects that I have found under the Chef supermarket are rather old (i.e. 2015 or older).

Hi,

I am new to the community. I was wondering is there any ready solution to install Drupal on a VPS? Like easy install script? I do not want to be on shared hosting.

Thanks

I have done countless backups and reinstalls of drupal 7 but I have hit a brickwall with drupal 8

I had done a backup via Softaculous of a non production site and also manual backup, but when trying to upgrade to 8.5.6 it killed it and I have not been able to successfully reinstall the backups. I am doing manual ftp, I have no knowledge of drush or any other method.

I have a smaller version of the now dead site and I tried to clone it via softaculous but the result is an incomplete installation. The core is missing and my host has not responded after several hours.
