Hi Maurice.
What I did is 1)download the tar ball 2) unzippped and put under my Apache2 web server doc root 3) Install PHP and MySql and create DB and user then all the settings.php permission 4) Start the web server and point the web browser to localhost/install.php and it asked questions about DB name, user and web admin uder and then straight away it says succesful and start your web site. 5) Then I have the page like to start (live Admin, contents and so on) but anythink I press in that page keeps bringing me to a default index page you usually have when you install apache.
I tried a couple of time with Google Chrome then with Firefox but the same thing happend.
Now as far as you know what should I expected under the doc root after the Drupal installation? Anything under sites/default/files?
Thanks
Alfredo

Hi Alfredo,
Your problem seems vaguely familiar, but I don't remember anymore when I had it or what I did then.
I would guess that you didn't install drupal in the server root directory, but instead in a subdirectory (which should be perfectly possible). There must be something else which mixes up the links. Maybe you set an url in settings.php which is only necessary in very weird cases. If you did revert it.
Anyways, we need more info from you.
- Can you log in at all?
- exampledomain.com/admin or exampledomain.com/subdir/admin should
get you to admin page (after logging in) 3) can you tell where your (wrong) links are pointing? 4) which server are you using?
best maurice

Hi there. As I said I am newbie with Drupal but today I figured out how to install
it
and ready to go except now I have the welcome page "
Welcome to your new Drupal website!" to start with and I guess I have to configure my website and so on.
When I press any of those link it keeps showing me my apache welcome
page.
What am I missing? Mysql is up and running and php seems working. Any clue? Cheers Alfredo
