Installing Drupal

drupal install instructions missing the folder permissions guide.

i've setup my drupal site on linux host, but some modules are giving access denied errors. i used ftp program to upload the files, and the all the folders have 755 permissions. files have 644.

can anyone plz tell me what are the correct permissions for each folder listed below?
(kindly write the permission in fornt of the folder.)

I am having problems when running drupal on Linux. I have run drupal under Windows and everything went fine. I am running FC4 with PHP5 and Apache2 with Mysql 4.1.

When I update a page I get the usual:

The configuration options have been saved.

However this stays and doesnt go away when I visit a new page.

So after updating a few settings it will read:

The configuration options have been saved.
The configuration options have been saved.
The configuration options have been saved.

Help would be appreciated :)

Hi

I've tried finding a solution to this in the forums but failed ... so sorry for the newbie question.

I have a drupal instance running on my Apache server at home for development purposes but want to use my ISP as my mailserver gateway (I thought this would make life simpler).

So...

1) I've updated the settings.php file
2) I've downloaded smtp.inc from drupal.org and put it in the includes directory
3) Updated smtp.inc to point to my ISPs smtp server, supplied credentials etc.
4) Updated variables table to point it to the new smtp.inc file

Hello,

I have downloaded and installed drupal and it works fine until I try to add the gallery2 mod. I've tried the install a few times, gallery works fine indepenantly until I install the drupal gallery mod. Once it is installed I get a bunch of permission denied errors in gallery and my gallery blocks do not show up on the drupal homem page after I enable them.

I'm using the latest 2 downloads of drupal and the latest gallery2 beta. Are these 2 products compatable?

I'm having a problem with my drupal installation. (4.6.1) It's been running fine for serveral weeks. I recently received a "Your over your storage limit" email from my host.... I went into ftp, and checked the directory. There were LOTS of these core.### files (### meaning an actual number). I wouldn't mind, except that they are approx 35mb each. I've downloaded, and opened one in an editor. No clue as to what it is. I've tried everything in drupal to get it to produce the files, with no luck. It seems they just randomly appear.

I have enabled the image module for the first time after upgrading the site to 4.6.2.

When the image module is on I notice a lot of spam in the log like this :

It seems to create one of these entries every time a node is accessed.
