Installing Drupal

I'm using Cpanel. After unzipping the Drupal 4.3 files and uploading it into the root directory (www/), I went into Cpanel > Database manager and created a database automatically, then a user, then added the user to the database.

Then I edited the file includes/conf.php to change the 4 lines:

Does Drupal's event module allow users to set the location of the event? (I assume that searhcing events by zipcode [e.g. "I wonder what Drupal events are happening near my zipcode tonite?] would be too complicated)



But it'd be great if, say, I could search by city... "what events on this site are in San Francisco? Let me do a quick search.."

For example, I've always found the yahoogroups Database function to be useful.

The user blog feature is great. Now, allowing users to create their own databases would dramatically improve any site's usefulness.

Does Drupal allow something like this?

Thanks!

My readers need to have an easy browse feature on the home page, along with other text. I know taxonomy_html has an overview page, but it isn't working with the new cvs, so I created a sort of block that can be dropped in to the middle of a static php page and function as a browser on the home page. The site is now access restricted, but a screenshot is here:

I've getting this when i try to open my fresh Drupal :|
I want to work with Drupal+postgresql, but it fails. I tried drupal 4.2 and cvs.
Drupal+mysql works fine... Any ideas? Help!!

Hi all,
I have a problem: i cant create the database! i'm working here on winxp home, but i have apache, mysql and php installed (and this works fine).

but then i do the command (like in the installation guide):
GRANT ALL ON drupal.* TO username@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'password';

i get the error: Error 1044: Access denied for user: '@localhost to database 'drupal'

I also tried to change the synatax to
GRANT ALL ON drupal.* TO mypersonalpsw@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'mypsw';
but i got the same error.

What i'm doing wrong?
