Wget failing on Drush dl
Hi,
I installed Quickstart on the latest version of Ubuntu and I immediately ran into problems when connecting to the internet.
I eventually played around with the network adapter settings in VirtualBox and after changing the adapter to bridged I could connect to the internet.
The problem I'm facing now is that for some reason wget is failing on a DNS lookup when I run drush dl.
I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to Ubuntu and networking in general. I have attached a file of the commands I'm running and the output I see hopefully someone can see where I'm going wrong.

Can't install modules
I am very new to drupal, and have decided to use quickstart to avoid fatal errors on my live site. When installing a new module, the update module asks for server connection details. All the standard usernames and passwords don't work. I have used root, example_dev, root@localhost as the different usernames and quickstart as the password. What could be wrong?
Thanks

Happy Holidays everybody!

Demonstration Websites for QS30
My thoughts are that the new Quickstart 3.0 should eventually:
1) support the semi-automatic download of a number of demonstration websites to help learn Drupal (synergy with Drupal Ladder?);
2) provide a better mechanism than the existing Modules installation page for locating a desired module tar.gz link;
3) provide some assistance with upgrading the Drupal core by providing guidance on database backup and migrate;
4) support the concept of optional tool sets to keep the initial download smaller and allow staged learning of tools.

Hey Folks,
It's in the works! But it's not ready in October.
We're working fulltime to pay the bills, and it's been difficult to find time to put into Quickstart.
Travis and Roma have been hugely helpful in moving the project forward. We wouldn't be anywhere close to done if it wasn't for their help.
The switch to Puppet, while critical to success, has been a big learning curve for me, and we haven't found anyone with the time to help.
Read moreHelp! Documentation Tzar
Howdy!
Quickstart 1.0 had many cool features, and not so great documentation.
Quickstart 3.0 plans more features, and this time we want awesome documentation.
Wanna help? We put together a straw-man Documentation Plan. We're looking for a Documentation Tsar to make Quickstart's documentation something really special.
If you like to organize information and can write for the web, here is a great way to contribute to Drupal and Quickstart :-)
Thanks!
Mike
P.S. We've started developing the Quickstart project site at http://drupalquickstart.org :-)
Silly Newbie Installation Mistakes and Ultimate Success with QuickStart
I am just 7 weeks into an intensive Drupal course (about 60 hours a week!); so my errors setting up QS are probably not the norm; though they may save others from repeating them.
The first step is to upgrade if you have less than 4GB of RAM. The virtual environment needs 1024MB (@1GB).
Read moreScrums, Moved to Github, Dev list on Google Groups
Hi, a quick update!
The last couple weeks we've had some successful scrums on Google Hangout. Open source is definitely a long-distance run, so they're helpful in keeping flow.
Also, we've moved to github, and started dev discussion on google groups.
Read moreQuickstart 3.0 in October 2012
Recently I've been working more with Drupal, and noticed Quickstart 1.0's post-installation fizzle: "470 days since your last update"!
I've been focused on billable time recently, but with Ubuntu 11.04 support ending 12.10, it's time to update my tools :-)
What's next for QS 3.0?
What I really wanted from QS 1.0, more than anything, was a debugger. A profiler was just icing on the cake.
Now, I really want a sensible dev/test/prod server ecosystem.

Enabling additional PHP extensions
Hi
Firstly let me say how impressed I am with Quickstart. I'm new to both Drupal and Linux so without Quickstart I'd probably be still pulling my hair out trying to get a dev environment configured. Thanks. Great work!

Install Acquia profile instead of standard Drupal with quickstart-create?
Anyone have any tips on how to go about telling quickstart-create to download and install Acquia's Drupal instead of standard Drupal? I can install distributions with quickstart-create but Acquia's Drupal is a profile, not a distribution.
Thanks,
Mickey
