Help installing Drupal

I'm trying to install drupal on my shared hosting account but have two errors can you help with these.

register_globals is enabled. Drupal requires this configuration directive to be disabled.

&

Multibyte string input conversion in PHP is active and must be disabled. Check the php.ini mbstring.http_input setting.

I tried to create a php.ini file and add rules but it did not seem to make any difference please help.

 

I got both of these issues solved but after registering the admin I get access denied when trying to access the admin panel any idea's?

 

maybe this will help, in your .htaccess insert this

 

drupal sucks WP is the best so far

 

You need both for different reasons.

 

contact your hosting firm

 

drupal sucks sooo much.. use wordpress

 

Nice of you to share and what are your arguments?

Drupal is more a framework meant for the bigger complex websites. Wordpress is a CMS ready out of the box even a dummy can get it working. With Drupal how ever you really need to learn how it works.

 

Drupal seemed to keep giving me errors I don't like the wordpress template system "smarty templates suck" so I have ended up using Joomla after a long time of using Modx

 

Your hosting support can change that.

 

I have followed installation instruction from: http://drupal.org/node/260 but no joy since Drupal installation instruction are not clear to follow. I am stuck on number 3. RUN THE INSTALL SCRIPT. Also I have follow information from: http://drupal.org/forum But no joy.

You can please give some more details and the good url? Maybe I can help

(Can not post links yet.)

For me personally it is very clear what to do, at step three just copy (dont rename it) the default.settings.php to settings.php.

So at the end you got two setting files at the following directory:
sites/default/settings.php
sites/default/default.settings.php
