Installing Drupal

huge speed improvement switching from xampp/wamp to Acquia's desktop dev. : https://www.acquia.com/downloads
On Win7-64, and with Kaspersky AV running..
Migrated my existing local site perfectly, (full site+db) from Wamp to Acquia server (local). It will ask you during install, just have the existing site running, and pick your db, user+passw.
Hope this helps somebody...

Hey guys i was hyped to see durpal exist and when i went to insta it, it didnt work... i made database in phpmyadmin and entered right info and got this error here http://prntscr.com/aulj88

Thanks in advance for help >.<

Hello,

I'm trying to help my son instal Drupal 8. We uploaded the drupal files to the server andwhen we go to the website to do the install we get this error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '[', expecting ')' in /home/thenig98/public_html/vendor/guzzlehttp/promises/src/functions.php on line 41

This is where we would expect to see the initial "Choose language" screen.

I can see this happens to a lot of ppl. After going through the Mysql, PHP install , and database creation, and testing, opening Droopal only gets a WSOD. No log entries, nothing.
First I did 7.43 and then the 8.06. Always same thing when you try to load the Droopal install script, you get a nice quiet Blank White screen. I finally stepped back to "cod-6.x-1.10/install.php" and that works fine.
Surely I am missing it.

Hi Folks

I'm getting this on my home page immediately after installing Drupal 8:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 72 bytes) in /home/johnmcc/public_html/podware.co.uk/vendor/doctrine/lexer/lib/Doctrine/Common/Lexer/AbstractLexer.php on line 265

There are no errors on installing - only the above when I go to my site

Any ideas what I need to do? I'm a novice on PHP but I've messed about with Drupal installation for a few years

Thanks
John
