yes you can transfer it to a local machine, however it won't be public in any way, shape or form. On the user of the local machine that you put it on, will have access.

yea, I don't want the drupal to be public.

but, how to do that localhost configuration?

I did a mysql dump from the drupal at www.shreemaa.org and copied the drupal web to the localhost machine. but, all the pages are not found. only the home page is displayed. none of the links work.

any help appreciated on this.

clear all cache tables in the DB
insure your settings.php file reflects the new DB settings.

I'm not a dbs expert, but can you tell me how to clear all cache tables in the DB?
which are those cache tables?
what do you mean by clearing?
purge?

there are cache_filter, cache_menu, cache_page

any help appreciated.

clear = empty

all of them

one can also use the devel.module to do such a task. the devel block has buttons to clear the cache.

I can't get to the modules page on the standalone drupal.
how can I clear these tables in the drupal DBS?
is there a mysql command?
I'm not mysql very literate so need help with this.

I can get to only the home page of the standalone drupal.
the rest of the links have 'page not found'.
I've got correct settings in settings.php

thank you for any help.
