Installing Drupal

Hello,

I am installing Drupal in a local development setup on my iMac with MAMP installed.

I downloaded Drupal 7.9 and copied it to the Apache document root as I specified in the MAMP preferences. So browsing to http://localhost/ would take me to where Drupal 7.9 is installed.

Last week (after few months practising with Drupal) i put online my website www.sahajayogaudine.it made with Drupal 7.8, a more expert friend (IT student) was helping me and we changed the login password to Drupal while deploying. (Also few modules like media were updated the day before). It happened that after beeing online i cannot anymore login to Drupal both with the new and the old password... and i today realize i cannot login on the local server installation as well.

Hello all,

I just starting out with Drupal and facing the following issue:
Since the current hosting isn't looking good, I wanted to transfer my account to my dreamhost account.
I transferred all files with FTP, transferred all databases and adapted my settings.php file.

Hi,

I am new to this... Was recommended by a friend to try Drupal instead of WordPress so here I am... But I have not been able to start yet...

I want to install drupal in a directory so that my "live" installation is unaffected. I am using one.com...

1) I have a folder /drupal where the drupal files has been uploaded.

2) I have modified /.htaccess and commented out the lines
#Options -Indexes
#Options +FollowSymLinks

3) I have done the same (2) for /drupal/.htaccess

Okay... been trying to get my development site setup on my iMac for 5 hours now... no success and am out of ideas, so I’m asking for help.

I am attempting to have two sites available to me for development work on my iMac so that my live versions on my webhost are not effected by my development work.

I'm follwing the two Drupal documents:

Here’s what I’ve done so far... perhaps there is something simple I’m missing?

I built my drupal 7 site in acquia, and I just migrated the site onto my remote server. All of the pages exist but aren't all printing content.

When I go to the content section in the admin panel I have all these errors:

I've tried reuploading the root modules and includes folder and that didn't resolve anything.
