Installing Drupal

I have got to the login screen which is pretty basic and don't seem to be able to create initial user. All blank after login and no uid created in MySQL user db.

Help appreciated.

Fresh install, in a subdir ( www.mysite.com/drupal ) on a linux Mandrake 10.1 with Apache 2.0.50 PHP 4.3.8 MySQL 4.0.20 and drupal 4.6.3

No theme displayed :(

Apache httpd error logs show reference to a (my www dir)/drupal/system file, not resolved.

What is this reference ? is this my theme problem ?

All other seems work correctly.

Any idea ? It seems that many people have same problem.

In my administration section, when I click on modules, I get a blank page. How do i fix this?

My drupal configuration is not very complicated but not quite the default method either. I'm running apache1.3.33+modsecurity+php4+mysql in a chroot jailed environment. I wrote a script to automate the entire process including downloading drupal and themes. My problem is this: when I attempt to register the first user.. after I click the create new user button.. it loads a blank page and reports no errors. The user is created in the

Strange problem with (I think) cache module
Main page returns this error

Warning: gzinflate(): buffer error in .../includes/bootstrap.inc on line 454

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at .../includes/bootstrap.inc:454) in .../includes/bootstrap.inc on line 465

After I clean the cache by "delete from cache" query everything back to work fine until next refresh or other user enter. Then the problem back.

What's wrong? This woked fine before

I have this setup working well:

/drupal/sites/pauls-place.org.uk/settings ($base_url = 'http://pauls-place.org.uk';)

But when I follow INSTALL.txt for multiple sites and use

/drupal/sites/pauls-place.org.uk.mandd/settings ($base_url = 'http://pauls-place.org.uk/mandd';)

I get a 404 at http://www.pauls-place.org.uk/mandd/

Where am I going wrong?

Thanks
