Installation Issue

Issue Summary

I would first like to point out that I am a Dupral newbie and I used WAMP to create a localhost environment for my Drupal site. I copied the folder "http_request_fail_reset" into the "modules" folder, I then navigated to http://localhost/drupal/admin/build/modules and found your reset module under "other." I checked enable and saved configuration.

My user pages worked fine but when I tried to go to any of the administer pages I got the "white screen of death." I went back into the "modules" folder and deleted the "http_request_fail_reset" folder. When I refreshed my browser I was able to access the administer pages. I'm thinking that this has to be operator error, but I don't know what I did incorrectly.

Can you set me straight? Is there some sort of protocol for installing modules other than copying the new module folder into the "modules" folder?
Thanks for your help!

I am having the exact same problem. I tried this module because I can't run cron and I'm getting the http request error. I'm also a total newb and running locally with WAMP. When I try to enable this module I loose admin completely. When I remove the folder I get it back.

I had the very same problem, seems like Catch XXII. When you enable new module, Status update checks module status - but it doesn't work, because of http_request_fail_reset = TRUE and fails miserably. So disable Status update module before installing any new module.

this was overwhelming as a newbie but I was shown a fix on my related issue here: http://drupal.org/node/245990#comment-1168348. I forget the details but I was able to go through the "summary" and found editing code in one of the files fixed it. i was excited because soon after Dries even posted and whatever the issue was (which is still beyond me) they are correcting it the next version.
