Installing Drupal

Hello. I installed Drupal 7 locally in a MAMP setup on my Mac and it works perfectly with a site I've called "my-test-drupal". I've also got a completely working Drupal 7 setup on a remote server hosted by 1and1.com with a site called "nac-drupal-test". These are completely different sites.

I wanted to grab a copy of the nac-drupal-test from my remote server and work on it locally. So I did this:

1. Exported the database from 1and1.com using phpmyadmin.
2. Imported the database export file into my local phpmyadmin. All the tables show up in my local database.
3. Created a new user on my local phpmyadmin with the same credentials as my remote database (just in case).
4. Edited settings.php for the new local copy of nac-drupal-test with the new database info (database name, server as localhost, new username and password), local port number as 8889).
5. Edited .htaccess in my new local copy of nac-drupal-test to comment out the AddType x-mapp-php5 .php line I had to add for 1and1.com. Also commented out RewriteBase = / (though I've tried this both ways and my problem below still happens either way).

The problem is, when I got to: http://localhost:8888/nac-drupal-test I get an HTTP 500 Internal Error. I can't get the site to come up.

Hello,

i am facing a problem, when i export my DG website, i am not able to edit menus. I can able to add links as well content & ect. but when i am on the administration/structure/menus

when i click on edit menu link i just got an error message
"The website encountered an unexpected error. Please try again leter."

It's on a local installation (using MAMP on OS X)

kindly helpme out! looking for support!

Thanks in advanced! :)

This is my first post, I apologize if it is in the wrong area.

I installed a theme (Pinboard) that I have running on MAMP and on a 1and1 virtual server, but wanted to utilize all that QuickStart has to offer. After an apparently smooth install the home page returns the following text (this is only the first few lines of the output).

How to set link to block title?
is that possible?

I copied a remote drupal installation to my local server (WAMP) and also copied the database. The site works fine, and I can log in as administrator, but if I try clicking on any of the admin menus I get the message "The connection was reset. The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading."
Any ideas?

Remote:
Apache version 2.2.22
PHP version 5.3.14
MySQL version 5.0.95-community

Local:
Apache version 2.2.22
PHP version 5.3.13
MySQL version 5.5.24
Windows 7 x64

The error message is:

SQLSTATE[HY000]:General error: 2013 Lost connection to MySQL server during query

Running the installer, the error occurs when setting up the database part. When the installer aborts, there are created 26 tables in the database. I have to delete the tables before next attempt.

Is there any workaround this problem?

I have tried to remove the content of the .htaccess file, and given full privileges to all files and folders in the Drupal installation folders without any success.
