Installing Drupal

I am helping some folks out with their site and am hitting a deep set of errors. I am not the admin setting this up, so am just relaying the problem. While I have done several installs, am not a tech expert on the foundations.

Unfortunately they have a dedicated box, but PHP is run as CGI module. I just started doing some searches here for these errors. Looks like a pear issue. The admin there changed the php.ini file per another topic here on drupal.org.

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer with this issue.

I would like to replace the bullets in the news feed blocks in 4.2(using xtemplate theme) with images. Does anyone know where the insertion of these bullets occurs? import module? any idea on what line?

many thanks for any suggestions

I'm not a stupid person (no, really, I'm not). I've installed a few PHP and Perl programs successfully. But I'm missing something when it comes to that line in the conf.php file.

I am running MySQL.

My database's name is: rojonet_drupal
The user name is: rojonet_rojonet

(The server appends my logon to everything I create and it's been my experience thus far that it is required. Perhaps it is not in this instance, since I cannot figure out how to get it to read the database using what I have there now.)

Here's the relevant portion of the conf.php file as it exists now:

BEGIN CODE:
$db_url = "mysql://rojonet:[password]@localhost/rojonet_drupal";
# $db_url = "pgsql://user:password@hostname/database";
# $db_url = "mssql://user:password@hostname/database";

$db_url = "mysql://drupal:rojonet_drupal@localhost/rojonet_drupal";

#
# Base URL:
#
# The URL of your website's main page. It is not allowed to have
# a trailing slash; Drupal will add it for you.
#
$base_url = "http://www.ro-jo.net/drupal";

END CODE

When I attempt to launch my page at

http://www.ro-jo.net/drupal/

or

http://www.ro-jo.net/drupal/index.php

I get this pleasant reply:

BEGIN ERROR MESSAGE

Warning: mysql_connect(): Access denied for user: 'drupal@localhost' (Using password: YES) in /home/rojonet/public_html/drupal/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 12

Hi,
I'm trying to use taxonomy_dhtml and I succed a bit on my way.
I created a taxonomy block and copy the code from Drupal handbook and it works.
I load the module taxonomy_dhtml and called my site with /taxonomy_dhtml and I get a nice tree structure like these:

Top
   * aaa (3)
     o blabla
     o ertert
     o qweqwe
   * bbb (1)
     o yuiyui
   * CCC (1)
     o cccdddfff

just install drupal...

everything fine...except when i load the index.php ...
i will get this:

Fatal error: Table 'drupal.variable' doesn't exist query: SELECT * FROM variable in
e:\apache\htdocs\server\drupal\includes\database.mysql.inc on line 75

the database was loaded into mysql without any errors...i think..
anyone can help?

This might be a stupid question, but where can i block a user in the admin area? I just want to delete an account, but drupal tells me 'Failed to delete account: the account has to be blocked first'.
