I just set Drupal up on a Dreamhost site. Drupal unfortunately is not deamed as an important application by Dreamhost, so they do not offer it as a "One-Click-Install". In order to install Drupal, you need to download the Drupal 6.10 Installation and upload it to your account. Then, point your browser to your installation path (i.e. www.domain.com), and Drupal will guide you through the rest.

The one caveat to this, is that you will also have to create a mysql database manually to use in the installation. you can do this from the dreamhost panel.

Hi.

Did you have any problems with your install?

I just uploaded the Drupal files, and created a database. I'm looking at the domain and I get the errors below:

Warning: array_keys() [function.array-keys]: The first argument should be an array in /home/dean83/www.scarfstore.com.au/includes/theme.maintenance.inc on line 217

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/dean83/www.scarfstore.com.au/includes/theme.maintenance.inc on line 217

Warning: include(./themes/garland/maintenance-page.tpl.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/dean83/www.scarfstore.com.au/includes/theme.inc on line 1020

Any thoughts?
