Installing Drupal

Hi

Completely new to Drupal, although I have set up 2 websites (with HTML and a bit of PHP/CSS)
http://www.probowluk.co.uk and http://www.needlesharp.co.uk

Are there any easy to follow guides to installing Drupal7 in a Wamp32 localhost (for coding and testing) ?

PDF preferred, but would try a video ... totally deaf so any such guides are no good to me unless they have proper captions.

cheers

Hi community,

I've just started a new Drupal 8 project and I'm implementing Unit Testing as part of continuous integration. However, when I did a default installation of Drupal 8.3.7, it shows a few failures already. I'm curious if this is normal? Could I have miss out a step?

When I peeked into the unit testing codes, some were just Windows Directory Seperator issue. Then there are genuine bugs, like the one I raise: https://github.com/drupal/core-datetime/pull/1

I have a Drupal 8 site, which was originally built on my MacBook Pro MAMP environment, and I am attempting to move it to a GoDaddy cPanel environment. I have copied over all of the necessary files, backed up the database in phpMyAdmin, and to this point, everything went smoothly. The problem was encountered when I attempted to import the database using phpMyAdmin on the GoDaddy side. I start the import, and it ends in an error 1050.

I've done a Google search, and the only thing I'm able to find is a mention here on Drupal.Org, but it is for a Drupal 6 Install.

I am unable to start a D8.3.7 setup. There is no error. There is just a blank browser window.

I am able to start the setup of D7.56 on the same system.

System is: FreeBSD famp 11.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 11.1-RELEASE #0 r321309, apache24, php56, mysql

What am i doing wrong - likely reasons?
Does D8 have any special requirements?

Hi Everyone

I am trying to install Drupal 8.3.7 on Centos 7 . When i go to local host on the browser to run the install it erros Verify Requirements.

It indicates that the /Sites/Default/Files is not writeable.

When I go to the location and run ls -l it indicates rwx-rwx-rwx root root. which is 777 so not sure what the problem could be.

Any help would be appriciated.

Thank You

Dave
