Installing Drupal

Hey all,

i am a web programmer who has recently been asked to build an artists community website. the site will be a paid service, allowing artists to put their portfolio or art collections online, to be publically or privately viewed. the portfolio/collection will be maintained by the user, and will give them access to things like a calendar, mailing list/address book, resource directories (art stores, framers), etc. in the first version of the site, the user will not be able to sell their stuff, but we'd like the ability to do that in the future.

I have just uploaded the current CVS version of Drupal (2pm GMT - 20 Sept) to my web hosting space and created the database tables and everything, and get this error.

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: module_init() in /home/netgold/public_html/amajuba/includes/common.inc on line 1126

i have the xtemplate on my site and like it alot. one of the blocks, but possible others- i have enabled is "last viewed". in this block sometime the nodes with extreme long names without spaces (pic_house_backyard_early_afternoon_2002.jpg) make the right region go beyond its ussual space. the visible layout stays the same, however thr region is partly outside the screen.

i would like to have a fixed width, or blocks should linewrap long names.

Hi. Am trying to install image.module on site running current CVS Head. I think I have the permissions set correctly for users and for the directories, but am having these problems:

1) get this error referrering to the links() function in the theme:

warning: implode(): Bad arguments. in /home/spoons/public_html/network/themes/1/1.theme on line 246.

I have the usual links theme there:

function links($links, $delimiter = " · ") {
return implode($delimiter, $links);
}

just installed drupal on my localhost...
load up the index.php...
all i see is this:
"Access denied
You are not authorized to access this page."

click anylink will throw me back to directory listings...

did a search on drupal already...but still the same...
things i did:

mysql
-----
1. GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON drupal.* TO admin@localhost IDENTIFIED BY '123';
- return with ok
2. flush privileges;
- return with ok

Trying to use drupal on a free hosting/webspace/mysql service called polarhome.com (recommended). I'm not sure if it possible to run drupal on my space though. Problem is that drupal's .htaccess file is not permitted to overide any of the php directives needed for configuration. Probably prevented my httpd.conf. This includes the 3 most important ones: magic_quotes_gpc, session.save_handler, and session.cache_limiter. Apparently I can have drupal set directive in its scripts itself with the ini_set() function.
