Installing Drupal

Hello all

I am working on a project at sf.net
(http://vox.sf.net)

I want to use durpal for its website.
However, I am not able to setup the database (as sf.net folks have given only one database of mysql, ie., vox). Since it is not named durpal, the installation is not working.

i don't know how to install drupal-4.5.0

:(
please help

Hi,

I am not new to linux but I am new to apache/php/drupal. So I have tried to follow the instructions: installed apache, mysql, and drupal on my Gentoo linux system. Here are the versions that I am working with:

PHP 4.3.9 (cli) (built: Nov 30 2004 19:25:45)
Server version: Apache/2.0.52

When I load up the page, I am getting the contents of the index.php file!! It looks like apache is not understanding that php should be interpreting the code. Any pointers on how to make apache recognize this would help!!

Thanks!

I just know that I am having a huge blonde moment...but when I am in "settings" and trying to tweak the configuration for my site I keep getting the "The directory (whatever directory) does not exist." error message. This would be for the file system path.

I created a directory (because it said one needed to exist). I have tried running a full path to it (home/blahblah/public_html/directory) and it still says it doesn't exist.

What am I doing wrong? I even tried just putting /directory for the file path and that didn't work.

Hello everybody,
i just installed drupal 4.5 and want to use a translation from drupal.org.
But i miss an installion guide, can anyone help what todo with the *.po files?

thx.

I've figured out that my ISP (Verizon) blocks port 80. While I have no problem moving Apache to an alternate port, how do I tell Drupal to include this in its URLs? Also, why is the formatting of the start page so inferior when I do move to another port? I lose all the detail of the theme.
Thanks,
