Installing Drupal

I've pasted some raw HTML from Mozilla's Composer into the body of a news posting (story). The preview and final result seem to completely mess the output introducing line breaks, ignoring anchors and links (sometimes) and messing up the rendering. I use the same method to post to PHPNuke and such typicaly.

I've tried posting the same content here, and it seems OK.

Using 4.1 Unable to upgrade to 4.2 (see previous posts).

Thanks

I have installed Drupal to its "default" directory (drupal-x.x.x) and have been playing around with it to see if it meets the needs of my site. It's an excellent CMS, and I have elected to go with it, but now I have a lot of work that I have done with the test installation that I don't really want to go to waste. I would like to start pushing all the content, et al. that I have developed during testing to the main website (ie - www.mywebsite.com).

First a quick 'Wow!' for Drupal. I've just discovered it after seeking a phpnuke alternative for weeks. 10 mins later 4.2.0 was installed on my cheap shared linux hosting service and working. Never had a simpler install. Wow!

But... all my blocks appear on the right side of my page, never the left? I have region set to 'left' but they're all right. I added a 'right' block just to see if that changed anything, but no.

I suspect this is my user error somehow, but... any pointers please? thanks!

Using version 4.10. I only tried to update a book page, and pressed Preview, then made a few changes and pressed Submit when everything went awry with the following error messages:

On the home page:
user error: Can't open file: 'node.MYI'. (errno: 145)
query: SELECT n.nid FROM node n LEFT JOIN book b ON n.nid = b.nid WHERE b.parent = 0 AND n.status = 1 AND (n.moderate = 0 OR n.revisions != '') ORDER BY b.weight, n.title in /usr/www/users/photojpn/notes/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 69.

I've added a news locale. The user is able to select it ad the default for thier account.

I've translated couple of strings and made sure they where entered using UTF-8.

When loging in with the user account that has the new locale as default I still get the original english text.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,

I have 4.1 and need to upgrade to 4.2. The update.php seems to offer some upgrade paths but not from 4.1 to 4.2 and the Upgrade to CVS seems to mess up my installation.

I've installed from scratch and would like to know how to move on with this. I've also tried the update.php availabe with the 4.2 tarball, with no luck. When I upgrade either way I end up with a message saying I'm not authorized to access the page.

This is my phpinfo() -- partial
