Installing Drupal

Hello,

I try to install a Drupal 8 website on an OVH shared hosting server. The installation seems to run fine, however after importing the database via Backup and Migrate and browsing the website for a while, the server crashes with a 500 Service Unavailable error.

Before another crash, I was able to reach the logs admin panel :

- I saw an error concerning the sites/default/files/config_* folder, stating that Drupal couldn't write the .htaccess file in it. However, when inspecting this folder, the .htaccess was there...

Hello
I want to test D8.4.0.

Some time ago, I break a D8.0.0 ite with a drush upgrade...
Sevral people say me "oh, you must NOT use drush to upgrade ! Use Composer only !" ...

So I begin to work with composer.
No problem until D8.3.7.

Now I want to install a NEW D8.4.0 (not upgrade, install in an empy folder)

I run :

composer create-project drupal-composer/drupal-project:8.x-dev public_html --stability dev --no-interaction

Seem fine...

hi and I'm still somewhat new to drupal. I've had to set up a test localhost server to try and figure this out as on my hosted site, I ran in to the same issue.

Hi

I am new to Drupal 8 development and had a question about Drupal 8 installation.

I will be installiing a Drupal 8 website on a hosted VPS unix server with Linux.

I have watched videos where Drupal 8 is installed and then Composer, Drush and Github are installed subsequently.

I have read alternative sources where it's recommended to install Composer first and then Drush and to install Drupal 8 using Drush.

I have downloaded Drupal 8.3.7 and then uploaded the files via FTP to my Inmotion Hosting server. I updated the PHP to v6 and the files are in a subdirectory "v8." I have also tried to put them in the root public html directory. Anytime I try to run the installer either just navigating to the site, or going to /core/install.php, my browser downloads the file instead of running the script. Just going to the site I get the info below in a text file. Going to install.php downloads the .php file to my machine?

After install of Drupal 8.3.7, language Portuguese-BR, running at Nginx, it goes back again to the beginning before 2 last steps.

This is my drupal.conf that used to work with Drupal 8.1:
