Installing Drupal

Hi,

I got a new hosting account from Hostpaedia.com while I was on Arvixe before.
I have a drupal site on my previous account and wanted to shift that to my new hosting account.
I had used softaculous to install that before. Can anyone guide me. Its uptodate thanks to softaculous.
But how to migrate ?

This is probably not the typical way to install Drupal, but I am on a Windows machine and just wanted to test out Drupal locally. I installed Drupal through Microsoft WebMatrix which runs thorugh IIS. I can get to the admin area, but don't see where to access the MySQL data. Do I need to set up a connection manually? I see the icons to add a new MySQL connection and new MySQL database. It seems not everything is correct in my installation, although I am able to install themes and modules. The admin area is ungly though like it's not picking up any theme styling.

Hey, according to the Building a Drupal site with Git tutorial, we just pull Core from the repo, rename the remote, add our own remote and start developing.

I tried doing that with the Commerce Kickstart distribution, however, when i checkout the current stable version, the files i get are:

in Drupal7 I installed the WYSIWYG Module, when I want to install the editor CKeditor , always fails. I have no idea.

I tried two methods:
1. I download the CKEditor unzip it and add it to the sites/all/libraries directory ---- failed

2. download the CKEditor module enable the module the report the method 1 -----failed

anyone any suggestions are appreciated!

Hello,

When installing a Drupal 7.19 on WAMP I arrive to the "Set up database" step, but
instead of having a window that asks about DB name/password
there is only a string "Database file" with string

sites/default/files/.ht.sqlite

What am I supposed to do now?

I really don't know how to proceed further,
any help appreciated.

Hello,

I have successfully downloaded drupal, I have it in my htdocs. I created a database but I actually need to connect to a site that is already built. If there is any documentation on this I would love to have it. I have the server information, I just would like to make changes to the site myself, new to drupal.

Thanks guys!
