Having problems installing Drupal? See the Installation Guide for more information.

"unable to select database"

Background:

This is a clean 4.6 install (from scratch) that was successfully configured and tested on a sandbox apache installation without incident.
My server is running php 4.3.11, mySQL 3.23.49 on the typical apache 1.3.33 linux box; it's a very vanilla CPanel style server, I installed phpmyadmin and imported my database without thinking twice about it (I've been doing this long enough that I should have been able to get this running in my sleep, ergo I am REALLY beating my head against the wall to get this working, now).

Under sites/default/settings.php I have:

$db_url = 'mysql://atlasiss_dbuser:mypassword@localhost/atlasiss_lbiw';
$db_prefix = '';
$base_url = 'http://www.atlasisshrugging.org/lbiw';

(And for the sake of acknowledging my own technically illiterate paranoia, I chmodded everything to 777, to see if this would appease the Powers That Be. It didn't.)

I can validate that these are correct as if I remove CPanel's funky little prefix (and we've all seen them), I'm rewarded with:

Warning: mysql_connect(): Access denied for user: 'dbuser@localhost' (Using password: YES) in /home/atlasiss/public_html/lbiw/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 31
Access denied for user: 'dbuser@localhost' (Using password: YES)

leaving me a momentary sense of nostalgia since, were that the error, I could fix it.

Last but not least, I have verified that localhost is, indeed the correct server for mySQL, and scanned the logs for useful errors which contain nothing but mentions of traffic from robots and my abortive attempts to do things like open index.php directly, etc.

Index.php missing from all links and forms

I just did a clean install of Drupal 4.6 on
a Linux shared hosting service.
PHP 4.3.10
Apache mod_rewrite is OFF.
In fact, they hardly have any Apache modules installed at all.
The Drupal .htaccess file is installed.
(They will not give me access to the Apache error logs, so I can't
see if there are problems there)

post-installation problems

i recently installed drupal 4.6.0 and i set the whole thing up, but when i was adding blocks, actually the third block it gave this error:

user error: Duplicate entry '' for key 2
query: INSERT INTO boxes (title, body, info, format) VALUES ('fdsfsdf', '', '', 1) in /home/ladecms/ladeleb.org/html/arabic/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 66.

"administer » access control" not available in 4.5.2?

Hello,

The Blogs for Every User node/topic (at http://drupal.org/node/280 ) references an "administer » access control" admin menu cmd. I do not see this in my 4.5.2 site. Are these directions not oriented for 4.5.2?

Fyi...

New install - can't open modules from the start. Diff.php and smartypants errors.

Just did a fresh basic install on gentoo linux, Apache2 2.0.51-r1, mod_php 4.3.11. Have not touched config of the site/drupal yet, have not done any customizations etc. This happened right after install....

This is what i get if i click on the "modules" link

img src problem in Drupal 4.6.0 article and story module

With 4.6.0, with article module, I have
img src="misc/xml.png" alt="XML Feed" \
instead of the image

Changing filters does not improve anything.

Same thing in stories if I add the print module
I have img src="1" alt="" in text
