Installation error

[AVguy]

Thank you Steve...it has installed but with errors. Have made a new post on this ,G

You need to run install.php for installation, not upgrade.php. Please follow the installation instructions in our online documentation here:

Steve,
I just edited my post...it was upgrade.php not install.php

[Steve Machol]

I don't see how that is possible since install.php expects an empty database and would never produce that error as the first step. Please describe everythign you did.

Steve,

When I open upgrade.php in my browser

[Steve Machol]

At what exact point in the installation are you getting this?

[AVguy]

This is my 1st attempt at installing and this is the error that I am getting.
Could you please help:
