Installing Drupal

As most of you are aware, there are issues with installing Drupal 4.6.x on hosts that have not granted users with the ability to LOCK TABLES in MySQL ( http://drupal.org/node/1190 ). There was some talk that this issue may be addressed in a future release of Drupal (at the very least giving you alternatives to using LOCK TABLES). Does anyone know if Drupal 4.7 might provide some work arounds? I'm of course aware of "unofficial" work arounds by changing the code, but I'd rather not have to do this in future builds.

every time i use link, my index.php don´t work. ex. create the first account ... http://localhost/drupal-4.6.3/?q=user/register, i thing the problem is my apache httpd.conf, but i try change it, and the problem persist. when i try open my brownser which or default is http://localhost/drupal-4.6.3, i see first the index of drupal and i have to click in index.php to start the process.

Where i have do copy my .htaccess ? in htdocs ?

well i think i installed the drupal properly (4.6.3) but when i go to my site it shows this errors in the top:

"Notice: Undefined index: pass in c:\program files\easyphp1-8\www\drupal\includes\database.mysql.inc on line 31

Warning: session_start(): Cannot send session cookie - headers already sent by (output started at c:\program files\easyphp1-8\www\drupal\includes\database.mysql.inc:31) in c:\program files\easyphp1-8\www\drupal\includes\session.inc on line 10

I'm inching my way into configuring a multisite using Drupal 4.6.3. I've followed the install.txt and several forum messages and have managed to get the user shared on a main site and one (so far, several to follow) subsite.

In both settings.php I included the following:

MAIN
-----
$db_prefix = array(
'default' => 'wow_',
'users' => 'shared_',
'sessions' => 'shared_',
'forum' => 'shared_',
'role' => 'shared_',
'authmap' => 'shared_',
'sequences' => 'shared_',
);

Subsite 1
-----
$db_prefix = array(
'default' => 'ds_',
'users' => 'shared_',
'sessions' => 'shared_',
'forum' => 'shared_',
'role' => 'shared_',
'authmap' => 'shared_',
'sequences' => 'shared_',
);

After uploading a modified database.mysql for both (to reflect the prefix changes) and running a base browser install, I was able to log in to the subsite with the user account I created on the main site. So far, so good.

I then tried to access the forums via the subsite (after running a config on the main and setting up a few categories & forums). No go. Nothing setup etc.

What I want to do is have several categories & forums on the main site, and have SOME of thise categories & forums available on the subsites.

example:

MAIN
-----

Category A
Forum A1, A2, A3

Category B
Forum B1, B2, B3

Category C
Category CA

ive installed a few modules but they are disabled because they werent what i wanted. there were some bugs so i had to fix them with some fixes i saw. now im having a problem with flexinode and the mysql stuff. on every page there is a mysql error at the top claiming that a certain database specifically for flexinode doesnt exist. i dont know how to create it or what to do.

the other problem ive noticed is all the options for account settings are missing. all i see is a submit and delete button.

thanks...
