For example - a bad one since these are pulled in by the project, but it is what I have currently documented. The crib sheet http://www.bitweaver.org/wiki/Version2.1+Windows+niggles was needed to help get new users working, where previous installs simply worked from the zip. http://www.bitweaver.org/downloads/file/11619?highlight=PEAR works with PHP5.2.6 but gives errors on 5.3.0 Those errors now need to be isolated between the core code and the PEAR and other libraries. It takes some time to test every possible path in a full bitweaver install :( -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/lsces/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk// Firebird - http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php
