Installing Drupal

Howdy,

What I had to deal with: a drupal 7 website, encoding 1251, via hosting cPanel created backup of everything, plus via phpmyadmin made sql backup, relocated to new hosting (NS-servers).

What I am trying to cope with now: installed drupal (7.41) on the new hosting, installed module "backup and migrate", tried to restore sql from hard drive (saved backup) - error...

Is is possible to change default index.php to something else, like index2.php?

Thanks!

Steve

Hello,

this is the first time that i use drupal. I have this backup from the hosting server with all files and mysql dump. I have to test it on my localhost ( wamp) but after restore files and DB i have this error trying to lunch the site ( http://localhost/mysite/ ):

Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required 'C:\xampp\htdocs\vitrum/includes/actions.inc' (include_path='.;C:\xampp\php\PEAR') in C:\xampp\htdocs\vitrum\includes\common.inc on line 5152

What i have done:

My System:
Windows 10 x64
Drupal-8.0.4
Apache 2.2.31
PHP Version 5.6.18
mysql 5.5.44 at port 3307

I extracted drupal to PathToMyHtdocs\drupal8\
I created a Database named: drupal8
In Browser I navigate to localhost/drupal8/core/install.php

There is always the same error:

Fatal error: Call to a member function setFormClass() on null in PathToMyHtdocs\drupal8\core\modules\system\system.module on line 1394

In ZendServer there is in the message - queu:

Hey, never used drupal before - I've been trying to become acquainted with it over the past weeks by doing stuff on a test site and watching videos, reading up, etc.

Problem: I set up my drupal 7 site locally, imported my tables into the database and now the main url loads but no other urls resolve (not even /user) and the dashboard is completely gone.

What I've tried: I've tried truncating the cache tables in my database as found in one of the discussions here. It didn't work.

Details:

I downloaded and installed the Acquia Dev Desktop. I had been using 7.42 but specified 8.0.2 I used all the defaults and installation was normally but while it was creating the initial website I got this message:
