Drupal 6.1 Install Tutorial

[SirPacha]

Hey guys, for me the whole installation works pretty fine following the tutorial (thanks a lot btw) until i reach the final step of the installation :
Drupal installation complete

* Unable to send e-mail. Please contact the site administrator if the problem persists.
* warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /www/clanteam.com/g/a/l/galactictactical/htdocs/drupal/includes/mail.inc:193) in /www/clanteam.com/g/a/l/galactictactical/htdocs/drupal/includes/session.inc on line 99.

I understand that mail() isnt available (for free) but what about the 2 other errors ( sorry im a noob in php)
thx in advance

[Daveqing]

Thank you for such useful information. I installed it according to the above information and still got error message when I accessed to my website. I'd like to get one's help here. Hereunder are the details
1. I applied for a free web hosting here in Zymic.com, the file 'code-style.pl' was not allowed to transfer to the server. The file is one of the files in Drupal application. I wonder why not?

2. I used Windows-XP only with I.E.6, Firefox3.5 and Opera10.63. I didn't install I.E7. I have finished whole processes of Drupal app installation using above guideline. But when I type 'http://interfriend.99k.org/install.php' which is my free domain name, it came up this error: " <!--[if lt IE 7]> Fatal error: Call to undefined function phptemplate_get_ie_styles() in /www/99k.org/i/n/t/interfriend/htdocs/themes/garland/maintenance-page.tpl.php on line 23"

How could I deal with the problem? Is it because that I didn't install I.E.7? Can I use Firefox to make installation of Drupal?

Thank you very much for your guys' help in advance.

I actually reinstalled drupal and the only thing that I saw that could be edited was in the bootstrap.ini file line 772

CODE

      ini_set('zlib.output_compression', '0');

this should be commented out like this

CODE

//      ini_set('zlib.output_compression', '0');

Try editing that piece of code and tell me if it works. Also when going to the install page be sure to specify install.php (Ex. example.com/install.php).

been meaning to post this http://download.zymickb.tk and click on the Drupal 6.22 Download button

[KnitChick]

Argh!

I am trying to install Drupal on my server (teamgeek-rfl.clanteam.com) and I got all the way up to the .htaccess, had that fixed, and now it is stalling on loading the install.php. Basically I get a blank screen. The title bar says "Choose language | Drupal" but nothing actually loads. Help??

[ssfdre38]

ok Drupal 7.7 is NOT going to work on Zymic at all period due to us NOT having PDO set up so use Drupal 6.20

[shnooky]

This was a huge help, I don't have much experience with Drupal 6.1 so a detailed walk through is very handy.
Thanks!

Followed your exact steps. Since safe_mod is enabled on uuuq.com, would you like to explain how it can fail while you got success? Would be very nice of you.

were you able to get Safe mode disabled?

[Vacationman]

I am a new user...joined zymic...trying to install drupal 6.15. I set up the database and followed this tutorial to install drupal (and my database signon info works with "connection checker"http://mysqlquery.zymichost.com/connectionchecker.php) . When I get to the install page of the drupal installation I get this error message.....??

Failed to connect to your MySQL database server. MySQL reports the following message: Access denied for user '729745_b12345'@'localhost' (using password: YES).
Are you sure you have the correct username and password?
Are you sure that you have typed the correct database hostname?
Are you sure that the database server is running?

My database name is "vacationman_zymichost_b12345"

any help would be much appreciated..thanks
