Hi,

I am not new to linux but I am new to apache/php/drupal. So I have tried to follow the instructions: installed apache, mysql, and drupal on my Gentoo linux system. Here are the versions that I am working with:

PHP 4.3.9 (cli) (built: Nov 30 2004 19:25:45)
Server version: Apache/2.0.52

When I load up the page, I am getting the contents of the index.php file!! It looks like apache is not understanding that php should be interpreting the code. Any pointers on how to make apache recognize this would help!!

Thanks!
Jacob

I just know that I am having a huge blonde moment...but when I am in "settings" and trying to tweak the configuration for my site I keep getting the "The directory (whatever directory) does not exist." error message. This would be for the file system path.

I created a directory (because it said one needed to exist). I have tried running a full path to it (home/blahblah/public_html/directory) and it still says it doesn't exist.

What am I doing wrong? I even tried just putting /directory for the file path and that didn't work.

Hello everybody,
i just installed drupal 4.5 and want to use a translation from drupal.org.
But i miss an installion guide, can anyone help what todo with the *.po files?

thx.

I've figured out that my ISP (Verizon) blocks port 80. While I have no problem moving Apache to an alternate port, how do I tell Drupal to include this in its URLs? Also, why is the formatting of the start page so inferior when I do move to another port? I lose all the detail of the theme.
Thanks,

I'm trying to install drupal 4.5.0 with postgres 7.2.1, and the setup script dies with this error:

psql:database.pgsql:782: ERROR: parser: parse error at or near "SEQUENCE"

line 782 has this line:

ALTER SEQUENCE menu_mid_seq RESTART 2;

What's up with that?

Hello,

I'm new to this, but familar with the installation process. I've attempted to install Drupal three times now on my G4 Mac so that I can build and test sites locally using this CMS.

I keep getting this error:

strict warning: var: Deprecated. Please use the public/private/protected modifiers in /Library/WebServer/Documents/themes/engines/xtemplate/xtemplate.inc on line 42.

(It repeats the same error from line 42 - line 70.)
