Installing Drupal

Hello, I have installed drupal-4.5.2 in windows XP with apache2.0.52, php-4.3.10 and mysql server 4.1.

When I access to drupal (index.php) using a browser in the localhost, I can see the page well, but if I
access tu drupal using a browser (IE or Firefox) in a remote host, I see the main page with problems
(I can't see the images correctly, without background colors, all the text is black, etc.).

I don't know what's the problem. Thank's and sorry, I'm from Spain and I forgot my english.

I've seen questions similar to this posted elsewhere here - people doing seemingly-successful 4.5.2 installs and not being able to use any but the default theme. In my case, downloading and installing additional themes and theme engines did nothing to help - still stuck with Pushbutton only (all others show up as headerless, with misaligned page elements and all content at left side).

I've done lots of searches through the forums, checked the troubleshooting and install guides, and haven't found a solution yet.

Hi,
I'm very new at this, so I'm sorry if this is a really stupid question, but I just can't seem to figure this out. I have drupal on my web server, and use phpmyadmin to access the files. I have added the image module and ImageMagick and the settings page on drupal has green OKs on it like it is setup right. I changed the permissions to the files and the image table is setup in the database. But when I try to upload a picture, I get this message:

warning: rename(tmp/tmpthumb_9f4831844cef5477062301f6fc9dda17.jpg,images/thumbs/thumb_9f4831844cef5477062301f6fc9dda17-18.jpg): No such file or directory in /home/artteac/public_html/drupal/modules/image.module on line 827.

I have no clue what to do

If I go into the image, thumb, and tmp folders, the pictures are there. Maybe I didn't put the folders in the right place? I have the folders in inside the Drupal folder, but not in with the modules folder, I tried that, but it didn't work and I got even more errors. I hope this makes sense to someone out there. Please remember, I am very new at this so if you reply back to this you'll have to try to put it as simply as you can, lol.

I'm installing the newest version of Drupal on my 1and1 account. I continue to get this error message:

"Lost connection to MySQL server during query"

Has anyone encountered this? Do you have any idea what could be causing this? Thank-you greatly!

My problem is that when I try to create the first user or click on practically anything else, I get directed to an "Index of /drupal" page. I have set drupal up with the locahost configured as my webserver for testing. I did notice that when I click the logon button, I get a 404 error message from apache "The requested URL /drupal/ was not found on this server. Apache/1.3.33 Server at localhost Port 80". I have nearly exhausted my patients. TIA for any help.

am I stupid?

have tried to install the german language file, but where i can import it?
what i've to do?

sorry for that stupid question..
thanks for your help
regards
