Has anyone had any experience with the Drupal rpm yet? I just installed it and made a soft link to "/var/www/html" and when I try to install it with http://192.168.1.105/drupal/install.php I get the following error:

403 Forbidden

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /drupal/install.php on this server.

I suppose this is a permissions problem but what in the world do I set permissions at for this to install and then what permissions do I set once installed. Also are there any special files I need to ensure are world readable while installing Drupal?

Scott

1. cd /var/www/html ; ln -s /usr/share/drupal drupal so that som http://blah-bla/drupal/ can work
2. vi /etc/httpd/conf.d/drupal.conf uncomment Allow from 127... and put your local IP adress
3. chmod apache /etc/drupal/default/settings.php
4. check if SELinux makes troubles
5. point web browser install using db name,db user name and password (you have to create db and user+pass for this db)
6. chown root /etc/drupal/default/settings.php
check site have fun :-)

(I do this using F7 for install I did "yum install drupal")
