Hi, I'm a first time user of Drupal, but no stranger to PHP CMS (Mambo, SiteX), My interest in Drupal is largely due to what seem to be a solid set of useful modules and good multilanguage support, without the complexity of Mambo.
I have to say though that my first experience (like most other people it seems) is painful.
Here's why:
The installation instructions, and most of the responses to similar newbie threads seem to assume the following:
I have my very own server which I am able perfrom command line instructions on
My MySQL database either doesn't exist, or is exists but is empty
That i would happily install Drupal to the root directory of my domain or subdomain, using up a precious MySQL database, when all i want to do is see if I can make Drupal do what I need it to do.
In reality and in my experience, the largest potential benificiaries of a system like Drupal actually have the following:
Some webspace hosted remotely
FTP access
No command line access
PHPMyadmin - THE most popular MySQL database tool available
An existing My SQL database
Existing tables in that database which they do not want to screw up by running a script which creates tables without any prefixes
I have given rights to anonymous and authenticated user to access content .But I get error Access Denied. You are not authorized to access this page.
When I enable access administration pages permission for both anonymous and authenticated , I will see page but it also give me right to edit that page. I Want only to view that page not to edit to authenticated user.
Please give me solution.

I have been working ona bilingual site in civicspace using the I18 module.
everything seems to be working well, except that the authors have produced a bunch of bilingual bookks on the site and though the bookpages exist in two languages the book menu doesn't appear on the frnech side of the site?
I am a student doing an external project on drupal.
Problem is:we worked on a database in college called "drupal".But now we have to dump that database in the clients machine.But the client already has a database called drupal;this means we have to rename our database.But its unfortunately not as simple as that.
Help on how to change the database name in drupal and still have everything working as it was will be appreciated.
I am trying to simply the task of posting a blog with some inline photos of trips, hikes, etc.
I wondered if there is a module, php, api, or combo of these that will automatically reduce an image's dimensions (eg, down to 512x384 px from 1280x1024 px) as it is uploaded/posted?
I am trying to remove Photoshop or ACDSee from the equation altogether.
Hi, I have sucessfully got Drupal up and running, however I am unsure which version I should be using. I really need to use the Workflow module, but as far as I can tell, it is only for the 4.5.x branch and not the 4.6? Yet it says it is dependent on the actions.module which will only run under 4.6?
Basically I was wondering if someone could tell me what version of Drupal should be running to be able to get an extranet-type of system with the workflow module etc. Also if anyone has any tips with creating a workflow/approval content sort of system that would be great. Thanks.
