The 'Easy way to install drupal with the cPanel control panel'
instructions at http://drupal.org/node/25310 omit the step of defining
the base_url.


The third bullet point, which currently reads:


Change the setting in settings.php: $db_url =
"mysql://levavie_u1:234@localhost/levavie_db1";


should perhaps read:


Change the database setting in settings.php: $db_url =
"mysql://levavie_u1:234@localhost/levavie_db1";
and set $base_url to match the address to your web site: $base_url =
"http://www.example.com";


You'll see from http://drupal.org/node/49544 that this omission seems
to be causing problems.

'Major' rewrite completed: http://drupal.org/node/25310. I welcome
comments & critique.


I believe the current comments on the page can be deleted as well.
