Join Tom Geller for an in-depth discussion in this video Troubleshoot web host installations, part of Drupal 8 Essential Training: 1 The Basics.
- [Voiceover] I hope your installation…process went as smoothly as mine.…Because problems are so common when installing…Drupal on a Linux webhost, I've set up an environment…that demonstrates some of the most common ones.…I've already installed Drupal's files and an empty database…on my server, now I'll start to walk through the installer.…Now this is a screen we haven't seen before because…we've always had a successful installation…but actually it's very common to come to this screen…because there's some kind of problem in your webhost.…
There are three errors on this page.…First first one, clean URLs, I'll talk about in a minute.…But as we scroll down, we see two that seem…much more serious, you can see the little red X's here.…In fact, you cannot continue with the installation until…these are solved, whereas the earlier one, which…is in yellow, you could actually ignore and go on,…it's just that your site won't work as you expect.…But these two you have to fix right a way.…They both have to do with the file system…
