Hello all!
I´m new here and I must admit that I´m not a programmer, but I wanted to add Drupal features to my site, and I´m planning to do it myself.
So, I added all the drupal files and folders to my remote host:
http://www.ligadelconsorcista.org/drupal
(I added the "dupal" folder inside the "public_html" one)

I create a database name "drupal" (I can´t use phpmyadmin with my host, I have to create from their control panel, so I simply create the database.

I edit the config file like this:

$db_url = "mysql://user_of_the_database:pass@ligadelconsorcista.org/drupal";
$base_url = "http://www.ligadelconsorcista.org";

The drupal system should appear if I type:
http://www.ligadelconsorcista.org/drupal
I even try:
http://www.ligadelconsorcista.org/public_html/drupal

But "Not found" page appears!
What can I do?

Thank you very much for all your help!!!!!!

Reading other topic here, I changed ligadelconsorcista.org to localhost.
But the problem continues.
When I tried to erase the htaccess file this error appears:

Fatal error: Table 'drupal.users' doesn't exist query: SELECT u.*, s.*, r.name AS role FROM users u INNER JOIN sessions s ON u.uid = s.uid LEFT JOIN role r ON u.rid = r.rid WHERE s.sid = '28187879f670b3e045a54a0a3ca3bee7' AND u.status < 3 LIMIT 0, 1 in /www/docs/ligadelconsorcista.org/public_html/drupal/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 97

drupal is my database name, not a table... I´m really lost here!

And I red that I should try to uncomment all the lines at the htaccess file and then comment them one by one...
But I didn´t understand, because the lines are already uncommented!
ie.
# Protect files and directories from prying eyes:

order deny,allow
deny from all

# Set some options
Options -Indexes
Options FollowSymLinks

Only the comments have the # at the beggining...

I´m lost and clueless!
Why "Not Found" keeps appearing?

Thanks!!!!

Thanks Killes!
I did changes that... but my problem is still there...
The page seems to not be there...
:´-( What should I do?

I´ve been checking the server configuration...
The install file says that it should be:

session.save_handler user
I think that my host has this directive as "files".

What Can I do in this case? Maybe this is causing the problem...
Is there a way to edit the htaccess file so I can use the D system?
(If is there a way to do so, please tell me how to o it ;-)

Thanks again for your help!!!

You created your database manually using your host's control panel.

The first error, involving drupal.users suggests you may not have created the tables IN the database. In /drupal/database you'll find a couple of files full of SQL commands that create the necessary tables.

I'd also suggest you get the .htaccess file from the original archive and copy it to your /public_html directory. the one thin you may need to do is find this section:

# Various rewrite rules
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
  RewriteEngine on

  # Modify the RewriteBase if you are using Drupal in a subdirectory and the
  # rewrite rules are not working properly:
  #RewriteBase /drupal

and uncomment the

RewriteBase /drupal

line. Good luck.

Thanks for your help, Prometheus!
In fact... hehe... I didn´t added any table, so I did it manually, one by one :-)

But, my problem continues... (I did the htaccess changes also)...

The page cannot be displayed...

I would really appreciate if you could give me some advice!

Thanks again!!

To me it sounds like a server problem not a drupal one... You sure your server allows drupal and is ready for it?

Mine is working thanks to Ax, maybe he can help you too...
All though he is a professional drupal designer...

test.scoliosislife.net getting there to be done...

My host told me I needed root access?? My server has everything set up, tables are loaded just cant load the initial page.

Here is my orginal question - http://drupal.org/node/view/9298

I'm hoping someone can help here!!

I´ve been reading your post Beck, and probably you have the same server problem.
Tell your server how it is installed the directive
session.save_handler

BTW, his name is "Ax"? Just like that?
I´m gonna try find him ... :-)

Thanks!!

I did enter to Ax´s site and asked him for help....

Hope he can help me, because it IS a server problem: My host told me that session.save_handler directive is not configured as "user", and they are not gonna change it :-(

Hope he can help me :-)

I'm having the same problem as everyone in this forum.

Can't reached http://drupal.avancesites.com.

I created the db, enter the correct info in config.php, even added the Cname into my host (this is because I'm using subdomain).

And I should be reaching the site at drupal.avancesites.com. Can't.

Hmmmm..... PS It's hard to follow and zigzag on this board....

I´ve been wondering around and found some thread that maybe could be useful to some people: (but It didn´t worked for me)
http://drupal.org/node/view/2289

And here´s a patch to the problem:
http://drupal.org/node/view/7586
Again, it didn´t worked to me... If anyone can help , it could be great!

(And yes Cecilia, this zigzag is quite difficult to read! ;-)
