That message usually occurs because the port number is wrong or the server program (i.e. Apache) is down. Drupal isn't likely to cause it unless it's been hacked. Does it happen consistently? Have you tried just typing in the URL directly (e.g. something like http://example.com/admin)?

please, my studys depends ..

I am a recent new user of drupal and I have the "access denied" problem (mentioned in this forum several times) when trying to setup a new administrator account .. so I do not have a lot of experience in drupal yet ..

however ..

for your problem perhaps you should go into phpmyadmin and as a precaution backup / export your drupal database before taking any more steps .. this will at least protect your study work ..

You could then try uninstalling drupal / reinstalling drupal and import your backed up database.

Keep a copy of backup database in your local PC.

..

Another thought .. if you are setting up on "another computer" have you changed $base_url in settings.php to point to drupal?
