Topic: Joomla 1.5

[EdelingF]

I'm planning to install Joomla 1.5 on my SME7.3 next week, are there things I should watch out for?
Has anyone written a HowTo allready or should I just follow this topic: Joomla 1.5 on SME Server 7.2 ? http://forums.contribs.org/index.php?topic=38606.0

Hi Hedeling,

I tried but did not succeed on my server running a new installation of SMEServer 7.3

The installation return the following error message:
