Drupal directories
June 04, 2008, 04:02:46 pm
Hello everyone:
Just installed CiviCRM, after long struggle.  CiviCRM requires directories in the right place, but nowhere I can find all the directores required and the structure.  Installation does not make directories.  I am still getting error in drupal.  I am new to drupal and civiCRM.  Could someone help.  Thanks.

Hi

You need a CiviCRM settings file named civicrm.settings.php in your sites/default directory. You already have a settings.php file here (this is Drupal's config file). You need the file civicrm.settings.php next to it, configured with your DB access details and a few other things.

The error message does pretty much say exactly this, as you say:

You don't say which versions of Drupal / CiviCRM you're using; that would help to know. Did you install 2.0 using the web installer?

Hello
I use Drupal 5.7 and Civicrm 2.0.  Where do I find this file and can I copy it to right directory.  I used installer.   
I see in sites\all\modules\civicrm file civicrm.settings.php.sample

Thanks

Edit the file civicrm.settings.php.sample, read the comments in it and update it with your settings, and save it as civicrm.settings.php in the same directory as your Drupal settings.php for that site.
