Installing Drupal

Howdy all,

Just put together a guide for installing Drupal with OpenLiteSpeed (an open source HTTP server we develop): http://open.litespeedtech.com/mediawiki/index.php/Help:Install:Drupal

Would love to hear any feedback if you've got it. (Especially, where else we might post this.)

Cheers,

I ask because I'm having issues with instaling OpenPublish but I can install drupal fine.
I think it would be ease if OpenPublish is only some modules.

"Failed to connect to your database server. The server reports the following message: SQLSTATE[28000] [1045] Access denied for user ___@______ (using password: YES)."

My host is using cPanel and he set up a mySQL database with a username and password for me, but he doesn't know what the hostname is or how I can access it when setting up Drupal on the website through ftp. I thought localhost might work. I've tried his website address, but it still doesn't work.

I'm not sure how to get past this error :-/

Thanks for any help or advice anyone can give.

Hi, I installed Drupal 7 successfully. Then I installed recruiter modules and sub modules necessary for recruiter modules to work.
I only installed but not made any changes on configuration or module preferences. Now when I try to open http://localhost/drupaldb/#overlay=%3Fq%3Dadmin/modules/ I get these errors.

There was a problem checking available updates for Drupal. See the available updates page for more information and to install your missing updates.

I currently use shared webhosting with networksolutions.com, but I am considering to switch to another webhosting.

Can someone recommend a webhosting which is friendly with drupal? Thanks a lot

Hello --
I am trying to install Drupal onto a server. I had originally installed 7.22, found errors, read that I should instead install 7.21 and upgrade, so I attempted that but am now receiving the following error at the Configure Site page of the install process. I am installing with root authority, so I am stumped as to why I am getting a permissions error. I have redacted the actual database username and replaced with [database username].
