Installing Drupal

I am new to PHP and Drupal, and trying to set up a local installation, running with Apache on Windows XP. I have set up Apache, PHP, MySQL and Drupal, and have a (partially) working Drupal application.
My problem is that I am getting plain text pages (no styles or formatting) and the page navigation is missing; instead of navigation links, I get what appears to be uninterpreted code:
{head} {styles}
{_BLOCK_.header.logo} {_BLOCK_.header.site_name}
{secondary_links}
{primary_links}
{_BLOCK_.header.blocks}

hi guy? i am new here
what is this problem anyway?
if i post wrong forums, pls tell me

Hi community,

I´m a new drupal user. I´m from Germany so my English ist not so good.

I´ve installed drupal on my Debian-Lamp server. I configured MySQL and the configurationfiles, named in the installation guide. I can connect to the site but I can´t create an user.

I can fill the filds username and email but, when I click on the user create button an http error occours. It sais the "page is not avaliable".

I am installing Drupal 4.6.3 in Windows XP with PHP 5/Apache 2.0.x and MySQL 4.1 (although I first tried with MySQL 5.0.) After installing everything, creating the database, configuring settings.php, etc. the drupal index.php page loads and displays the following:

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

Okay, I'm a newbie to Drupal -- I gotta say that it rocks so far...

I've got a new site up and I've done some basic configuration. I have yet to enable the watchdog module and I got a little ahead of myself and installed the Gallery module. When I enabled the Gallery module, it had errors set to watchdog by default (which, being the complete dork that I am I ignored). When I saved the module config and enabled it, I get an error:

warning: in_array() [function.in-array]: Wrong datatype for second argument in /var/www/myserver.net/htdocs/drupal/modules/gallery.module on line 376.


Fatal error: 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 ')) AND g2_AccessMap.g_permission & 1 = 1' at line 8 query: INSERT INTO watchdog (uid, type, message, severity, link, location, hostname, timestamp) VALUES (1, 'php', 'in_array() [<a href=\'function.in-array\'>function.in-array</a>]: Wrong datatype for second argument in /var/www/myserver.net/htdocs/drupal/modules/gallery.module on line 376.', 2, '', '/drupal/?q=admin/modules', '192.168.43.11', 1132989415) in /var/www/myserver.net/htdocs/drupal/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 66

Unfortunately, this has rendered Drupal a bit useless, because it happens on any page. I just need to manually disable the Gallery module and finish configuring Drupal before re-enabling it.

i have drupal 4.6.x installed in the root dir of my site.

if i create a new root dir (same name, same options) and move all the drupal files into it drupal breaks.

the index page shows with custom logo and with random image from embedded gallery2; but all of the links get 404 errors and i cannot login.

anyone have any idea how to repair it?

this happened once before and all i could do was to reinstall everything, including database.
i'd like to figure it out so i move my installation if need be.

i am at the Apache (1.x) server. php5, MySQL 4.x.
