Is Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone happy or sad and why?

Well, only the author could really answer that for you.

I anticipate some sadness during the story, but I doubt that Harry Potter will fail at anything he sets his mind to, and that good will triumph over evil, as usual.

It it already sad that it is the last book in the series however, so there will probably be some sadness involved with finishing the book.

I found it to be bittersweet. The ending overall is good, but there are a few elements to it which make it sad, yes, and of course because it's the last one. I was very happy with it, though.

Bittersweet , there is no beter world to describe it I am sure Harry and Ginny will just look at each over and burst into tears sometimes ,tears of love,loss and bittersweetness

What is the solution to the problem in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone?

The problem in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone is that Lord Voldemort is trying to steal the stone so that he can return to his body and restart the war.

Harry, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger discover this and attempt to stop him from stealing the stone by getting to it first. They are too late and Harry is forced to face Voldemort and Quirinus Quirrell by himself.

The stone has been well hidden and Quirrel cannot access it because only somebody who wanted to find it and not use it, could do so. Harry falls into this category and finds himself with the stone. As Voldemort is attached to Quirrell's soul, he discovers that whenever he touched Harry, his skin would burn and blister causing him extreme amounts of pain. This happened because Harry is protected by his mother's love after she died for him. Eventually, Quirrel dies while attempting to retrive the stone, Voldemort flees to find another host for his soul and Harry passes out due to the physical strain on his body.

When he wakes up, Albus Dumbledore tells him that the Flamel's, who own the stone, have decided to destroy it to prevent it causing any more problems.
