Installing Drupal

I am having some problem with the install.

1. Installed MySQL. Used root to create 'drupal' database. Gave ALL privileges to 'drupal_admin' on 'drupal'.

2. Installed Apache with PHP4 as in above instructions.

3. Copied all drupal files to /www/htdocs (my apache root directory)

4. Set the following in conf.php

$db_url = "mysql://drupal_admin:jasspur@localhost/drupal";

$base_url = "http://localhost";

So I tried installing several third party themes that I got off your site and to my surprise they did not work. Now this is an example message from a theme I would really like to work which is the "XTemplate_Tableless" theme.
It say's, and I quote:

Fatal error: Class theme_xtemplate_tableless: Cannot inherit from undefined class basetheme in /home/wolfe/public_html/main/themes/XTemplate_Tableless/XTemplate_Tableless.theme on line 35

Can anyone please explain how I can fix this? Thanks.

Hi,

I need to chosse a database name different from "drupal" (any other name is ok). How to do it the right way?

I like to install and test most sites on my PC before I put them online. E-Xoops and PHP-Nuke both run well on my computer locally without ever being put online. But I seem to have hit a snag with Drupal and am not sure if I simply made a trivial error or not.

basically, I have the databases created, made it completely through the setup proces with no problems. I made the changes to conf.php as follows:

$db_url = "mysql://xxxxxxxx:xxxxxxxx@localhost/drupal";
$base_url = "http://localhost/drupal";
