Installing Drupal

Downloaded drupal-4.2.0.tgz to my pc running WINDOWS XP but WINZIP cannot extract the files.

error message:
"error reading header after processing 0 entries"

I've tried with winzip version 8.1 and also beta version 9.

Any alternatives to suggest?

Thanks!

After updating my PHP installation to close security holes, I can no longer log into my drupal installation (version 4.1). I queried the watchdog table in the database and it shows that a session is created, but I am bounced back to the front page. Has anyone else had compatability issues with the new version of PHP?

I've done a bit of searching here and can't find info on a problem I am having with the Events mod. When I select the Events link in the top menu, my calendar changes from the current month to December 1999. Hence, no events appear. Got any ideas?

I am running 4.2 on a MySQL db.

Hi,

I'm hosting on sourceforge.

Everything setup OK, database fine, default page loads up ("ou are not authorized to access this page" etc.)

But when I try to create the first account, after entering name and email address and pressing button, just reloads whatever the current page is!

What can I do?

Thanks,

I have a fixed width site with 2 sides boxes. All is ok in: bolgs, photo gallery, add new blog, add new image, ... But when a user try to add a new comment the width is unfixed. The body textarea or another element push the right boxes a few pixels to the right.

How can I fix this problem?

Thank you!!

Hello all.

I'm just starting out in making more advanced websites, and I wanted to start by making a basic website to host a blog-kind of journal, news articles and reviews and such. I was hoping you might be able to recommend some reading or resources that I could use to acquaint myself with this new medium of site creation.

Thanks all.
