Drupal installs seem pretty screwed up.

We installed Drupal befpre we had the DNS set up. That leaves a non-functional drupal install.

Then we fixed the DNS, removed drupal and reinstalled it.

Now we've got site offline if we go to drupal.our.domain or drupal.our.domain/user. If we go to just our.domain we get a few lines saying that our domain isn't setup for drupal.dreamhost.com.

This would be easier to fix with a full account, but with these apps there's no good way for me to diagnose or fix the problem, which is frustrating.

It *is* in the beta testing phase.

Right. It's beta.

That's why I posted a detailed description. I'm frustrated, because I'm usually able to diagnose and fix things.

My intent was to give the feedback and say I'm stuck, that's all. I hope no one was offended.

i get the e-mail that says it's installed and it shows installed on my panel,then when I go to my website I get an error:

Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'atownorg2'@'oneclick2.dreamhost.com' (using password: YES) in /usr/local/ndn/web/oneclicks/drupal/sites/default/settings.php on line 161
# Whoops, we're not quite done setting up your new database!
Please wait a minute and then reload this page!

Once I get past that error it still gives me the "Site offline due to technical problems" error.

This should be fixed now. If not, PM the domain.
