[edit] PeopleAggregator doesn't run on Windows
Hi,
I'm installing on a Windows server. I have MySql 5.0.16-nt and PHP 5.2. I get through the prerequisites fine. I put in the configuration details and everything goes fine(see the message below). When the setup gets to "installing module settings", it fails. Any ideas? Thanks for any help....

ANSWER: I'm afraid that PeopleAggregator doesn't run on Windows yet, so this is expected behaviour :) If you could make it through the install process, you would run into many problems later on, so right now you'll have to find a Linux (or other UNIX) server. -- Phil
[edit] PHP warnings/errors during install
I receive a few errors after entering my MySQL info and then proceed with the install... does anyone know how I can correct the issues indicated below?

ANSWER: Never mind about this - these are just warnings, not errors. They sometimes creep into the install process; we clean them up when we can but sometimes they only show up on some servers, so they inevitably will be there for someone :) The install should still work. Drop me a line if it doesn't and I'll sort you out! -- Phil
