Drupal requires [[JavaMail]] to send user confirmation and passwords.  You will need to download JavaMail from the Sun site and install it in resin/lib for Drupal to work. This example also uses MySQL as Drupal's database. In order to connect to MySQL through Java, you will need to download MySQL Connector/J and install the jar file in resin/lib.

To install Drupal, just expand the Drupal .tar file into [[webapps]]/drupal (or [[webapps]]/ROOT). From there, follow the Drupal documentation.   Essentially, you'll just need to:
