Installing Drupal

I get an SQL error with tinymce.module

You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ')' at line 1
query: SELECT s.name FROM drupal_tinymce_settings s INNER JOIN drupal_tinymce_role r ON r.name = s.name WHERE r.rid IN ()

I've tried dropping the two tinymce tables and reloading them, but it doesn't seem to help. Any ideas on what's going on?

I'm sorry if this is a redundant question but my search terms are so generic that its hard to find appropriate results.

I'm trying to get Drupal running on a Fedora 4 box with apache2 and php 5

Anyway, after *much* aggravation (not Drupal's fault...this was server config stuff) I have Drupal to a point where it'll at least start up.

I just did a fresh Drupal install for the first time. At first, I got a 500 Internal Server Error. After removing .htaccess, the problem went away. Why is this happening? How can I edit the .htaccess file to make it work?

When I try import language file I get some errors like:
warning: rename(): SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The script whose uid is 10165 is not allowed to access /tmp owned by uid 0 in ...
warning: fopen(): Unable to access /tmp/phpL14q3J.txt in ...
warning: fopen(/tmp/phpL14q3J.txt): failed to open stream: Success in ...
warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by ...
I know that safe mode is enable on my hosting. Admins are helpfull set any parameters that I want but I don't know.

Hi people,

Im a new user and I was installing just now, I seen the settings.php and I see that the database connection is totally different to what I'm used to on my online.

$db_url = 'mysql://USERNAME:PASSWORD@localhost';
$db_prefix = 'SITE.com_-_drupal';

Im used to something 'like' - (which works always)

$databaseurl = "localhost";
$database = "DBNAME";
$username = "DBUSERNAME";
$password = 'DBPASSWORD';

Can anyone help, the DRUPAL code dont seem to work on my server I hire online.

Thank you

kind regards,

Hello everyone, after an hour or searching for an answer, I've decided to post this question to the community.

I have installed Drupal 4.6.3 and Mysql 4.1.13 locally on my windows xp laptop.

Everything works, but I'm having a problem that makes me think perhaps I need to convert my database to utf8. The site is in Spanish. When I create content that has accents using the Drupal admin interface , it shows properly on the website, but when I look at the table data using phpmyadmin, the accented characters show up as garbled.

I have also found that when I write php scripts that if I want to, for example, compare a string retrieved from the database that contains an accent to a literal string, the literal string needs to contain the same garbled text i see in phpadmin in order to work. I cut the garbled text as displayed in phpmyadmin and paste it into my php code. e.g. I have to code $value == "Datos Básicos" instead of "Datos Básicos".

I'd really like to be able to see properly rendered text in phpmyadmin, and not have to use garbled string literals in my phpcode. Is this something I just have to live with? In my searching I have come across dicussions stating that the drupal database must use latin1 as a character set, despite the fact that Drupal is working with utf8. Is this true, or would converting the database to utf8 solve my problems?

Thanks for your help.
