Installing Drupal

Is there any way to make sure the ?q=event link always defaults to the event calendar? or do I always get that list of upcoming events? I like the calendar so much better starting with the current month. I notice when all the events are in the past (no upcoming ones) going to the ?q=event page goes to the calendar.

Help! I have two sites going live this week! :)

I downloaded the 4.3.2 and installed on localhost (windowsxp/apache/php) set up the database, created the tables, pointed my browser to http://localhost and get the following error:

warning: module_init(modules/watchdog.module): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\Apache2\htdocs\includes\module.inc on line 10.

Fatal error: module_init(): Failed opening required 'modules/watchdog.module' (include_path='.;c:\php4\pear') in C:\Apache2\htdocs\includes\module.inc on line 10

I can't get xstory to work at all with Drupal 4.3.2. It gives an error of "Parse error ... in xstory.module" on the last line of the file. I've tried it with the xstory 4.2.0 release and the xstory CVS version. I've also tried applying the various and sundry hacks that appear in the drupal.org forums. All to no effect--same error every time.

I'm running Drupal 4.3.2 on FreeBSD 4.9, apache 2.0.45 with php_mod 4.3.4.

I'm using Drupal 4.3.2, with image module 4.3.

I've been loading images without any problems but suddenly, half of my images are gone from my albums. Some pics are still there but others are just gone. The pictures and thumbs are still in the image directories but it looks like some image links are broken. The album root shows the correct number of images in the album but when I open the album, it says there are no images at all. I can still load images but if I try to reload the same images that are missing now, I get an error that says the old images cannot be deleted.

What file permissions should be set for the drupal file "includes/conf.php"?

I don't really want it to be globally readable because my files are on a shared server and it contains my database password in plaintext. When I change the permissions to 640 my drupal web site generates errors, what should I do?

Many Thanks, Marc

Hey there,
for me localization only works in parts. I cannot translate anything at the webinterface since the entered information doesn't seem to get saved. Do you have any idea? The specific line in conf.php looks like the following:

$languages = array("de" => "deutsch", "en" => "english");

Okay, that's a working translation I imported from kloeschen.de:

mysql> SELECT * FROM locales WHERE string = "localization";
+-----+------------------+--------------+----+----+----+----+----+----+----+----+--------------------------+
| lid | location | string | da | fi | fr | en | es | nl | no | sw | de |
+-----+------------------+--------------+----+----+----+----+----+----+----+----+--------------------------+
| 19 | /?q=admin/system | localization | | | | | | | | | Sprachunterstützung |
+-----+------------------+--------------+----+----+----+----+----+----+----+----+--------------------------+
1 row in set (0.01 sec)

When I enter a translation at the webfrontend, nothing will get saved in the database. If I modify the database
by hand, It'll of course get saved:

mysql> SELECT * FROM locales WHERE string = "localization";
+-----+------------------+--------------+----+----+----+----+----+----+----+----+--------------------------+
| lid | location | string | da | fi | fr | en | es | nl | no | sw | de |
