Installing Drupal

Apache2.2.0
php-5.1.1
MySQL-server-5.0.18

when access index.php
my browser show:

{head} {styles} {_BLOCK_.header.logo} {_BLOCK_.header.site_name} {secondary_links}
{primary_links}
{_BLOCK_.header.blocks} Welcome to your new Drupal-powered website. This message will guide you through your first steps with Drupal, and will disappear once you have posted your first piece of content.

This is as a followup to the post in the troubleshooting section at http://drupal.org/node/29888 and is regarding setting up external SMTP server using smtp.class files.

I did everything described in that thread:
- downloaded to the 'includes' directory files 'smtp.inc' and 'class.smth.inc'
- modified smtp.inc file to include all correct user credentials and auth info (I'm using an external, my ISP provider, SMTP server)
- modified settings.php to include smtp.inc file

I tested the mailer by 'requesting new password'. Got the following line output to apache stderr:

------------
PHP Fatal error: Using $this when not in object context in C:\\Tools\\drupal-4.6.5\\includes\\class.smtp.inc on line 78, referer: http://localhost/?q=user/password
------------

My environment as follows (everything is installed on the same box):
- OS: Windows XP, SP2
- PHP: php-5.1.1-Win32
- WebServer: Apache 2.0.52
- DB: MySQL Ver 14.7 Distrib 4.1.12a
- Drupal ver 4.6.5

I took php.ini-recommended as my php.ini file. So these two variables are turned OFF:

- register_globals=Off
- allow_call_time_pass_reference = Off

I also tried to turned them both on, but that didn't make any difference.

Any ideas what might be wrong?.. In the meantime I'll try to downgrade my PHP installation to 5.0.x.

PS: if this won't work, can anyone please point me to the instructions on setting up 'phpmailer'?

So I have Drupal up and running and I can get to the homepage, but when I click on a link I see a page with the contents of my drupal subdirectory in it...

I am new to Apache, is this an Apache setting I need to change? Drupal does not seem to be looking for a specific page, it is passing some querystring to create the first user and I don't know how to fix it.

please help.

How I can change in Drupal-4.7 and module "sumplenews" parameters SMTP server for sending newsletters and drupal messages?
Access to php.ini and .htaccess is not present

Hi, I didn't managed to find a easy way to handle this problem.

I'm using drupal-4.7.0 beta2. I've PHP5 and _must_ use a remote PostgreSQL server. But my PHP don't have PGSQL extension or PDO_PGSQL enabled (I'm using XAMPP, that don't comes with postgre libraries actually).

There's a way to use PEAR library to have my Drupal installation Postgre-driven?

Thanks ;)

Hi,

I have just installed drupal and created database tables.
I clicked in "create new user account" link and provided a username, my e-mail adress and submited the form.
After that, i was redirected to the first page with the login form.
I didn't received any e-mail with the password, so i opened the database and i saw that in the users table was created an unique entry with this values on it:
