Several Install Problems

[DeniseAnn]

Ok i got this installed and had installed a older version a while back with no problems but this one keeps messing me up, i get it installed and here is what i get


Warning: Installation directory exists at: /home/thegolds/public_html/zc_install. Please remove this directory for security reasons.

I did this its fine


Warning: I am able to write to the configuration file: /home/thegolds/public_html/includes/configure.php. This is a potential security risk - please set the right user permissions on this file.

i chmoded it to 444
and got this:Fatal error: Unknown(): The script tried to execute a method or access a property of an incomplete object. Please ensure that the class definition <b>navigationhistory</b> of the object you are trying to operate on was loaded _before_ the session was started in /home/thegolds/public_html/includes/application_top.php on line 425


so i messed around and couldnt fix it no way , so then i deleted the whole thing and reinstalled and got the same three but this time i tried to fix this first

Warning: session.auto_start is enabled - please disable this php feature in php.ini and restart the web server.

and still got this and got this:Fatal error: Unknown(): The script tried to execute a method or access a property of an incomplete object. Please ensure that the class definition <b>navigationhistory</b> of the object you are trying to operate on was loaded _before_ the session was started in /home/thegolds/public_html/includes/application_top.php on line 425

So no body knows how to fix this?

Please have a little patience- your second post was at 4 something AM my time- so not eveyone is wide awake at the same hour.

Looks as though you may have some missing or corrupted files. I would suggest delete all of the files and the dabase and start from scratch.

just did that now getting
Fatal error: Unknown(): The script tried to execute a method or access a property of an incomplete object. Please ensure that the class definition <b>navigationhistory</b> of the object you are trying to operate on was loaded _before_ the session was started in /home/thegolds/public_html/includes/application_top.php on line 425
