Installing Drupal

I have been using Drupal for a few weeks now and I can't find the answer on how to fix this problem: When I go to admin/user/configure all I get is a blank screen. Has this bug been fixed? I would like to change some settings soon so any help would be greatly appreciated :)

thanks!

Hi, I'm not sure if UTF-8 is working, as it should, I’m pretty new to Drupal, Mysql and PHP.

The thing is that everything is looking good in Drupal, Swedish characters is working as expected. But when I’m using phpmyadmin or "Mysql command line client" to look at the data, Swedish characters is junk, the character ä (letter a with two dots over) become ä.

When I’m in a Drupal page is writing "$result = db_query("SELECT * FROM {term_data} d....", the Swedish characters is also junk.

If i dump some data from phpmyadmin the letter ä is 0xc383c2a4 (is this the character ä)??

When I’m doing what http://drupal.org/node/40515 (and other treads) suggests, I’m getting this on every page:
Notice: unserialize() [function.unserialize]: Error at offset 42 of 46 bytes in C:\sites\drupal\includes\bootstrap.inc on line 197
Notice: unserialize() [function.unserialize]: Error at offset 28 of 32 bytes in C:\sites\drupal\includes\bootstrap.inc on line 197
Notice: unserialize() [function.unserialize]: Error at offset 34 of 43 bytes in C:\sites\drupal\includes\bootstrap.inc on line 197

I'm using:
Drupal 4.7.0 beta
PHP 5.1.1 (tried with 5.0.5 before)
MYSQL 5.0.16 (tried with 4.1.15 before)
IIS 6

Server variables and settings from PHPMyadmin:
character set client utf8 utf8
character set connection utf8 utf8
character set database utf8 utf8
character set results utf8 utf8

Is this a permissions related issue or something else that I need to adjust?

"Warning: mysql_connect(): #HY000Host 'server5.hosting-pp.com' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server in /home/comicbookscoop/public_html/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 31
#HY000Host 'server5.hosting-pp.com' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL serve"

Peace, respect and thanks...

I just finished an installation of 4.6.4 on FedoraCore, Apache 2, mysql-3.2.3
I'm seeing the errors below.
I've checked permissions which all are correct.
http://209.97.202.239/drupal

can anyone help?

many thanks.

Any idea what could be causing this ?

Fatal error: Duplicate entry '6cb8a1efe5134964a318837ec35a8744' for key 1 query: INSERT INTO sessions (sid, uid, hostname, timestamp) VALUES ('6cb8a1efe5134964a318837ec35a8744', 0, '198.67.60.90', 1134423022) in /home/example/public_html/example/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 66

I just removed the mass_url module, now I see this. :s

Hello!

I have just begun to play with drupal and I found it very usefull. I also want the forum to work much like phpbb so I took the advice posted at http://www.drupalart.org/phpbb .
Basically, the problem is that when I install Flatforum module and copy template.php into the theme directory, I'm getting this:
warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #2 is not an array in /home/somewhere/drupal/themes/engines/phptemplate/phptemplate.engine on line 42.

warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #2 is not an array in /home/somewhere/drupal/themes/engines/phptemplate/phptemplate.engine on line 42.

warning: array_merge() [function.array-merge]: Argument #2 is not an array in /home/somewhere/drupal/themes/engines/phptemplate/phptemplate.engine on line 42.

and that's all, nothing else on the page. When I delete template.php, everything works fine again.

The piece of code in phptemplate.engine which produces this error is this:

if (function_exists('_phptemplate_variables')) {
$vars = array_merge($vars, _phptemplate_variables($hook, $vars));
}

So it looks like the _phptemplate_variables function from flatforum's template.php is not working properly or something. Also I noticed that these "argument is not an array" warnings were common back when Drupal was not compatible with PHP 5 and as I have PHP 5 installed, i assume that something could be still wrong in the flatforum code...
