Still have MySQL problems that need to get solved soon (was: Re: Apache and MySQL won't start)

[Ali A Samii]

Well, I thought everything went smoothly until I imported a Joomla site.

Result was a whole long list of errors, so I decided to try a clean install of joomla 1.5.20.

Everything went smoothly until I got to "Install Sample Data".

At that point, I got the following "Error: the XML response that was returned from the server is invalid."

I clicked OK and decided to proceed without the sample data, went to the final screen, then deleted the installation directory as needed, and clicked on "Administrator" to load the admin interface of Joomla.

Wow, 200 lines of errors and no admin interface.

One sample line:

Strict Standards: Non-static method JLoader::import() should not be called statically in /opt/local/www/dev.lesamisdestan.com/libraries/joomla/import.php on line 29

All start with Strict Standards.

If I can get this issue solved...I'll be on my way with a great thanks...but I really need to start finishing my project due tomorrow, which I have been unable to do any work on for over 46 hours due to the problems I've been having and the need to reinstall my entire macports installation about 5-6 times to get it to work.
