Hi there
I've just signed up to Harvest and saw the Drupal 'add-on' and think the reports would be very useful.

I went to the harvest page and downloaded both recommended versions but I can't work out how to use the zip file and my computer doesn't accept the other version.

I'm finding the forums are all in tech speak, and so is the harvest page. I would love it it someone could explain in non-computer expert terms how to go about this.

Thanks for your time

i'm running drupal 7 on windows with wampserver 2.2e

i'm trying to set up a site with drupal 7 but it fails just after initialization, telling me my email addresses are not valid' (i've put in admin@localhost for both 'Site email address' & 'email address' but it refuses to accept either are valid)

i ran a PHP test script to see if i could send an email directly to my mail client (outlook express) via my local mailserver (argosoft mailserver). everything works there

Trying to install Drupal multisite on Localhost using XAMPP plus Windows XP. This is an extremely common forum topic that is not resolved in any of the posts. I've browsed the forums for weeks trying to find a solution, searched google, watched videos at popular blogs and youtube channels, etc. There is not a successful guide.

My setup:

I've used vHosts and hosts to create multiple localhost-only domains [for example, I have example_site.com mapped to 127.0.0.1 in hosts (c:/windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts)], and example_site.com is set, as follows, in my vHosts file (c:/xampp/apache/conf/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf by default):

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName example_sitename.com
DocumentRoot "C:/example_rootdirectory"
<Directory "C:/example_rootdirectory"> //same as one line above
Options +Indexes FollowSymlinks +ExecCGI
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

This block in the vHosts file has been extremely successful for me. I have tested on four XP machines over the past several weeks, and it has worked on all of them, without a hick-up.

A script will do everything for you.
I use it to install drupal 7.14 on Ubuntu 12.04.

Here is a very dumb question from a very beginner. I used xampp 1.7.7 to install Mysql, php and apache on my PC running windows 7, with Explorer 8. everything seems to work if I access the website with 127.0.0.1, but I can not use "localhost". eg instead of "http://localhost/drupal" I have to enter "http://127.0.0.1/drupal. Is there any configuration variable that has to be set? Any help would be appreciated.
