Installing Drupal

I am trying to use the image modual and the images aren't displaying. I am using a new drupal install (4.6.0) from a cpanel fantastico install. I had a problem like this with another drupal install on my server and the problem was that the image settings were looking for a certin folder but because the install was from fantastico the path was different than what it normall would have been. Problem is I can't remember exactly what the path problem was. So I went to the image settings in the old drupal install and it said the path to the image folder was just "images".

Hai All,

I had installed the image gallery and it seems to be not working fine. The title and description are saved and showing great. But image is not uploaded to the folder. I had set the image path to files/images/ and verified it is exists. My server is Windows 2000 and PHP version is PHP 5.0 . Could you please help me. I am feeling this problem for two days.....

Thanks

i've installed apache, php, mysql and drupal but I'm unable to display the first page. I'm really new at this so i'm wondering if there's a beginner's installation/setup guide.

I followed the INSTALL.txt instrutions to the best of my knowledge. my settings.php file has the following:
$db_url = 'mysql://root:xxxxxxxx@localhost/clm'; (where clm is the database name)
$base_url = 'http://localhost/drupal-4.7.0-beta2';

Any suggestions would be helpful

In our Drupal 4.6.x site, we're seeing rather odd behavior when a user clicks the "logout" menu option. They get logged out OK, but instead of taking the user back to the complete home page, instead they are given an unthemed/formated display of what appears to be the "forgotten password" dialog.

i *think* i got drupal installed. after having a friend help me to install it locally on my computer, i was given and password for being the first user.

it then displayed a page the following text:

{head} {styles}
{_BLOCK_.header.logo} {_BLOCK_.header.site_name}
{secondary_links}
{primary_links}
{_BLOCK_.header.blocks}
{_BLOCK_.header.message}

there was a link or two inside the text, and i was able to change the password.. but i'm not sure what to do next. i believe i modified the first user.. but none of the other links seem to take me any place. i've been reading thru the handbook, and it talks about an admin/settings page. i dont seem to have any such page. i just seem to be clicking around a bunch of almost completly unstyled html/php pages , and going in a pretty small circle. i'm confused as to what to do next?

I have no idea how to handle the Gallery2 multisite setup. Would sure be useful if someone could map out an example of the directory structure.

This is what i thought was correct; but don't think it works:

/gallery2                - main code base (about 50M of code)
/ms_gallery
    config, index, main, embed.php
    
    /site1_data
         /albums
         /cache
         /plugins
         etc.

    /site2_data
         /albums
         /cache
         /plugins
         etc.

this seemed like it made sense; and setting for site1 has "location of Gallery2" as ms_gallery

and that works - but what is it for site2?

I believe that both site1 and site2 need to have their own config, index.php files

so i tried:

/gallery2                - main code base (about 50M of code)
/ms_gallery
    
    /site1
         config, index, main, embed.php
         /site1_data
         /albums
         /cache
         /plugins
         etc.

    
    /site2
         config, index, main, embed.php
         /site2_data
         /albums
         /cache
         /plugins
         etc.

and then set each site's setting for "location of gallery" to /ms_gallery/site1 or 2

now when i go to gallery it wants to run the install again????

Pretty sure if someone simply maps out folders for 2 sites under same drupal install and tells me what they set "location to gallery" to for each i can figure out how to get there,
