Drupal 6.9 install just not working
January 20, 2009, 12:46:18 am
It's a fresh install of Drupal 6.9 and CiviCRM 2.1 on php5.24 and mysql5.0


Module installs in Drupal leaving the usual "go to /sites/all/modules/civicrm/install/install.php' and follow the prompts message
No matter which variety of http://<site>/sites/all/modules/civicrm/install/install.php there is a page not found error. The files are where they are meant to be, when I moved them to different areas of the site I had no trouble navigating to them (the script complained bitterly when I did though), but just can't get it done in the /sites/all/modules directory.

I made up a civicrm.settings.php file which was parsed fine but of course the tables required didn't exist so the site as a whole crashed.

How can I run the DB install script without being able to navigate to the installation page?

OR

How can I get to the installation page?

The url is "http://<site>/sites/all/modules/civicrm/install/index.php" (and not install.php).

Here is the installation doc - http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Install+2.1+for+Drupal.

Sorry, I put a typo in here, what I should have put was http://<site name>/sites/all/modules/civicrm/install/index.php isn't working, I keep on getting a page not found error.

I would keep typing the url in the following format -
http://localhost/drupal64/sites
http://localhost/drupal64/sites/all
http://localhost/drupal64/sites/all/modules
....
till i get this error - "You don't have permission to access /drupal64/sites/ on this server" which means i am invoking the valid existing files/dirs.

But if you get the "Page not found" error, implies you have chosen wrong file/dir or it doesn't exist.

If you still not able to figure out, you could check install/index.php and install/civicrm.php files, which will help you in the direction of installing it manually.
