Error while installation

[vr4indian]

Hello Friends

I have download XAMPP - latest , installed it on my C drive

I have download latest ZENCART.

Create database MSA on my local phpmyadmin

now after installing zencart when i am trying to hit this url , i am getting following error

URL:
http://localhost/msa/admin/index.php

Error:
Deprecated: Function ereg() is deprecated in C:\xampp\htdocs\MSA\includes\classes\db\mysql\query_factory.php on line 17
this line gets repeated around 100 times.. and then following error line is there.


Deprecated: Function ereg() is deprecated in C:\xampp\htdocs\MSA\includes\classes\db\mysql\query_factory.php on line 412

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare date_diff() in C:\xampp\htdocs\MSA\admin\includes\functions\general.php on line 3001


Moreover, I am not able to see anything on main page.. its coming blank.. a simple white page with no text no image.

is there any versioning problem? a depreciated function?

Please help me

Thanks

You need to downgrade to an XAMPP version that is not running PHP 5.3 because Zen Cart 1.3.8a and below will not work with that PHP version.
