I know I am the one that suggested it -- and I even have done some work
on it (translations, documentation stuff, nothing major)....
I feel bad now though, cause I have no clue how to help you out :-)
I just installed it, and it ran fine.... Hope someone else can help you
out on this. One thing I would say though is to watch the Apache logs
while doing it. Might lead you in the right direction.
