Installing Drupal

I'm trying to install drupal, but I seemed to have run into a problem when I go to my site.

Warning: main(includes/bootstrap.inc): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/torranc/public_html/mysite/index.php on line 12

Warning: main(): Failed opening 'includes/bootstrap.inc' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/torranc/public_html/mysite/index.php on line 12

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: drupal_page_header() in /home/torranc/public_html/mysite/index.php on line 13

Sorry for my English. I've been triying to install Drupal 4.4.2 on a free host server www.freelinuxhost.com . At the begining I got the error 500 internal server error so i change my htacces for htaccess_inactive but now the problem is that when i try to load my web site only a white screen is showed www.anxo.thefreebizhost.com

Thanks for your support.

I was running CVS version from late august and I figured some files were updated since then so I did the upgrade but had a tough time. I just started fresh with 4.5 since I didnt have much content yet.

Now that I am setup again, I cannot seem to access the admin areas 'content' section without getting the authorization alert.

Another oddity is the 'Input Format' area of form to post content appears before and after the body textarea, no matter which theme.

I've just installed the banner.module and it seams to work OK, but I was doing some testing on a develpment site before I moved it to the live site and I'm having problems with displaying multiple banners on one page.

One banner works OK, I've put in into a block unsing the code
return banner_display(0);
with the block set a php.

Hi,

I tried to Update my Drupal 4.4.2 to Drupal 4.5 RC. I did not went very well and the result was a long way of putting the BackUp back in place. I got an parse error when putting the backup back in place and after some digging I saw that one of the Drupal inc files was not complete. Ok, I am running and up again.

Drupal 4.5
Let me begin with saying that I follewed the steps described in the INSTALL notes. I back up everything including the MySQL file. After that I replaced the Drupal files.

Question:
Do I have to replace all files or just the ones with a newer date?

Question:
Do I have to delete some files first such as the files in the modules directory? And are there more files to be deleted (Themes for example)?

I think a more detailed explanation is needed in case of Updating an excisting Drupal WebSite. The next case was running the Update Script. In my case I got a message that the menu directory already excisted. End of Update and a lot of troubles.

Question:
We have to choose what version (date) we want to update from. How to find out which one you need? There were a lot of choices, but I still do not know which one I had to choose. Is the default choice given by the script the one I need?

A lot of questions to improve to updating process. For newbies it is needed to prevent the things I encountered. I must be easier to update than this.
