Errors after installing Magento. Any ideas?

Hi everyone, I just installed Magento, and after uploading everything and successfully adding a database, I cannot see the front end of the store. Only the backend.

Take a look: http://www.webdesigndeluxe.com/magento/

Anyone have any ideas? Also, someone mentioned that I would have to disable PHP safe mode in a php.ini file which I am not sure how to do so that would be helpful to so I can see if that works.

If you have any ideas why this isn’t working, any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

There are no solutions here. I don’t know what to do.

Go MagentoRoot/errors/

Copy local.xml.sample – and create local.xml @ MagentoRoot/errors/local.xml

or try this http://bit.ly/cAsHk4 with little more explaination

Do you have safe mode enabled or disabled?

These are the errors I am getting.

Did you use a the sample data to install? another check to look at is there themes copy right on to the server if something is missing magneto can go haywire

Basically all I did was simply downloaded Magento from their site (the latest version of course), extracted it on my PC, and uploaded everything into the /magento/ directory as is, to my server and then when it was finished uploaded I browsed to the folder, and the installation wizard displayed. I filled out everything including the database correctly, and it said successfully installed and asked to visit the backend or frontend. The backend works fine, but when I try going to the front end, I get that error. Have yet to see the main store front page.

Any ideas anyone?

As per above, is PHP Safe Mode Enabled? It should be disabled. What version of PHP is your server running?

Check off on this list <”>http://www.magentocommerce.com/system-requirements> all the PHP extensions that are enabled, and that aren’t.

You can get the info to check what is and isn’t enabled via creating a php file, say serverinfo.php with the contents:

The one’s that aren’t contact your host asking they be enabled, or if you can place a php.ini file in your root directory enabling them/or via .htaccess.
