Drupal 6 CD Boot not working (SOLVED)
I boot off of the Drupal 6 CD and can login as root to the admin page. Everything seems to be working.
I login to the user page, select the only option I can "Install Drupal in English" and get this error immediately.

Suggestions? MySQL appears to be running.

If I want to erase the former instals ?
Reply 1Pretty much
Reply 2The VMs are isolated from one another (like separate physical machines), so it doesn't matter that you previously tried to install Drupal in another VM. Just start over in a fresh instance.
How to reinstall
Reply 3Hi,
I need to reinstall drupal. Is it just running a new VM from within Virtualbox with the same settings as the former installation in order to supercede it?

Drupal6 installation requires client side scripting enabled
Reply 4This happens if the installation fails.
I managed to replicate the same issue as you mentioned above by configuring my browser to forbid script execution, which is the default configuration when using the firefox extension - noscript.
This issue should be fixed upstream, in the drupal6 installation itself by requiring scripting and not proceeding with it. I'll file a bug report.
In the meantime, just reinstall the appliance and allow scripting in your browser prior to clicking "Install Drupal in English".
Side note: If you really don't want to re-install the appliance (which I urge you to do), you can drop the drupal6 database, the reconfigure the drupal6 package to recreate the database: dpkg-reconfigure drupal6
I'll make a note of this on the appliance page, thanks for reporting it.

Post it at drupal.org
Reply 5I recommend that it should be reported at drupal.org, it seems to be drupal itself, not Turnkey.
What if I want to get rid of the instals that are not working and that I meant to replace ?
Shall I just delete the .iso ?
What about the directories and dynamic virtual hard disks ?
