2. CREATE THE DRUPAL DATABASE

These instructions are for MySQL. If you are using another database,
check the database documentation. In the following examples,
"dba_user" is an example MySQL user which has the CREATE and GRANT
privileges. You will need to use the appropriate user name for your
system.

First, you must create a new database for your Drupal site:

$ mysqladmin -u dba_user -p create drupal

MySQL will prompt for the dba_user database password and then create
the initial database files. Next you must login and set the access
database rights:

$ mysql -u dba_user -p

Again, you will be asked for the dba_user database password. At the
MySQL prompt, enter following command:

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON drupal.*
TO nobody@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'password';

where

'drupal' is the name of your database
'nobody@localhost' is the userid of your webserver MySQL account
'password' is the password required to log in as the MySQL user

If successful, MySQL will reply with

Query OK, 0 rows affected

to activate the new permissions you must enter the command

flush privileges;

and then enter '\q' to exit MySQL.

Help. I decided to upgrade my 4.3.1 site to 4.3.2 in hopes that the bug fixes might be beneficial. I followed the instructions and used Wise-FTP to copy all of the files in the 4.3.2 directories into the corresponding directories on my web server. However, when I attempt to access my site (http://www.dillonsdomain.com) I get the following error:

Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)

The site is hosted on 1and1.com and is in a sub-directory of the root.

Alright...seems like this module dont like me...

When i press the submit button.. i got this message :

Full image file not uploaded. Thumbnail image file not uploaded.

i have chmod 777 to the images directory and 777 to the thumb...

i cant figure out what is the problem... please help... thanx...
(I'm on linux 9.1 mandrake, apache2.0, ImageMagick)

I have set my blocks in my left-site,but they still display in my right-site. why? I use marvin theme.

The file upload feature on my Drupal site is definitely not working.

After installing the filestore module, I noted that whenever I attempted to modify an uploaded document, like adding something in the description, then hitting
the "submit" button would put a real mess in the file display. Only the last posting, plus a truncated part of the second one on the list would appear on the "files" list on the menu. And once it is done, you can't go back. There is no way you can browse through the uploaded files
