I have pasted drupal in Htdocs modified the settings.php
with $db_url = 'mysql://root:root@localhost:3306/drupaldb';
$base_url = 'http://localhost/drupal-6.16'; // NO trailing slash!
but when i click on http://localhost/drupal-6.16 i get the Directory structure of Drupal folder
and using this i installed drupal with index.php and install.php
while installing it redirects to Page cannot be displayed --- For this where i can check logs
second doubt After two or three tries i successfully installed Drupal
but when ever i click on any link in Index.php it redirects me back again to the same Directory structure in the htdocs/drupal-6.16/ folder
