Before you start

Hello
I have a new website and at the moment users are able to complete a form (which uses a php script) and I recieve the data via email. I then take the data and complete a webpage templete with it - this includes naming the webpage "user_name.html" and all other relevant fields are completed. Now I want to automate the process. is it possible to have the form send information directly to the webpage template and save it as I have done and then create a data base with the information (as well as sending me the data via email)?

Hi,

I need to set up a wiki on my drupal site.

I installed a few wiki modules, but all they do is sit there - I can turn them on, but cant even begin to access them.

I have looked for a guide to this and have not been able to find anything.

I know this is probably such an uninformed and silly question that it is uninteresting.

But I cant figure it out.

Thanks,

Jimmy

I will soon be designing a web site for a local networking consultant/reseller, and I'd like to get some opinions on whether or not Drupal with the E-Commerce package will be a viable solution for the site requirements. I prefer Drupal's relative simplicity to the hopelessly complex tangle of options presented in many other e-commerce packages, but I'm not sure as to what combination of modules I'd need to use to achieve the requirements (there are so many of them now, the module index is huge!).

Hello,

I wish to make my community web site with drupal. I wish to make it in Hindi (unicode) language. I have some problems which are given below...

1)I want to provide my user a facility to type directly in Hindi. Do any one know how it could be possible?

This is the first time that I've had to set up Drupal from scratch. I have edited the settings.php file so that it will connect to my mySQL database. The line I edited was this:

$db_url = 'mysql://[username]:[password]@localhost/[_database name]';
$db_prefix = '';

My problem is that I'm not getting the start page for Drupal. Instead I'm getting this:

Unable to select database

We were able to connect to the MySQL database server (which means your username and password are okay) but not able to select the database.

The MySQL error was: Access denied for user: '[username]@localhost' to database '[_database name]'.

Currently, the database is [database name]. The username is [username] and the database server is localhost.

* Are you sure you have the correct database name?
* Are you sure the database exists?
* Are you sure the username has permission to access the database?

For more help, see the Installation and upgrading handbook. If you are unsure what these terms mean you should probably contact your hosting provider.

I have created the database, and a user that has all permissions, but when I go to look at the database in phpMyAdmin, there are no tables. All the other databases that I've got have tables in them. I'm thinking this may be part of the problem? If so, how do I get phpMyAdmin to add tables?

Do I need to put in the prefix here: $db_prefix = '';

I'm wondering whether to use Drupal for my site and would like to get some feedback. I've been able to install the software easily enough, but at the moment it doesn't do the things I need it to do. I want to be able to access an existing database of information which is relatively complex and cannot be simply incorporated into Drupal's existing structures.
