Installing Drupal

Hello,

I am blocked when installing Drupal under wampserver 2.4 with this message:

"Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in C:\wamp\www\drupal-7.23\includes\database\database.inc on line 2168"

Under this message a table related to the sequence of all the executed files are given with their respective duration.

I did not find where this value of 30 s is configured, neither in my drupal
directory nor in my wamp directory

This happens whatever is the type of requested installation: standard or minimal.

Hi All,

I need to install Drupal +IIS+Oracle anybody help me to provide steps.

Thanks an Advance...

Regards
John

Hello,

On my localhost I have a drupal site installed and it was up and running. But since yesterday I get the following error when I go to my site:

( ! ) Warning: Uncaught exception 'PDOException' with message 'SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Een verbindingspoging is mislukt omdat de verbonden party niet correct heeft geantwoord na een bepaalde tijd, of de gemaakte verbinding is mislukt omdat de verbonden host niet heeft geantwoord.

Hello,

I'm sure that it will quickly become apparent that I am a beginner to drupal

I'm having trouble moving an existing drupal 6 site to a localhost on my computer. I plan to update this site to drupal 7 and then upload it back to the host server when I've completed all the module updates and theming. I have successfully downloaded and uploaded the database again to the localhost, have put the site files in a folder named after my database in the "htdocs" folder and altered my settings.php file so that it appropriately reads this format:

For several years I’ve had a running (friendly argument) with a friend who swears by Drupal.
I always felt most of your time in Drupal is spent searching through files and troubleshooting, with little time focused on design.
Sure Drupal can offer more but if you have not designed every element of something how are you supposed to easily fix any problems.
To this day I still use Dreamweaver designing every element of the website.
