Drupal (register_global)problem
So many people have problems passing through the first installation stage in Drupal and the problem is usually the error page that tells you that “register_global” is on and must be disabled. There are so many ways proposed in the Drupal documentation on how to do this but to me the one i find to be the easiest is simply creating php.ini file in your root folder. Some solutions would tell you to contact your host or do this or do that but before you go ahead, try this solution first.
Now let’s leave every other thing behind and see how this can be done;
If you meet this error, simply open up a notepad, put this text in it register_globals = off , exactly like that, then save the file as php.ini and then upload the file to your root folder and that should be the answer to your problems hopefully.
Not only do this php.ini problem apply only to Drupal, it also applies to other similar problems with similar php built database driven sites.
