Trouble with PHPNuke admin logon page

[CrazYmonkeY159]

OK guys so firstly I'm not really that experienced with this stuff, I'm just doing it as a technical exercise to amuse myself and learn a thing or two. I've been trying to create a VAMP server utilizing a PHPNuke module. Im running it locally.

The Setup, Vista SP1, Apache 2.2.10, MySQL 5.0, PHP 5

I've granted all privileges to the relevant database and have imported nuke.sql into it using myphpadmin.

I get the following errors when i try to go to localhost/phpnuke/html/admin.php (when i set $display_errors = true; otherwise when $display_errors = false; its just blank, shows nothing)

Warning: include_once(language/lang-.php) [function.include-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\Apache\website\phpnuke\html\mainfile.php on line 331

Warning: include_once() [function.include]: Failed opening 'language/lang-.php' for inclusion (include_path='.;C:\php5\pear') in C:\Apache\website\phpnuke\html\mainfile.php on line 331

Fatal error: Call to undefined function themeheader() in C:\Apache\website\phpnuke\html\header.php on line 51

I did get an error while importing nuke.sql but when i access my database i see lots of nuke_xxx tables (38 to be exact)

anyone know any ideas on how to fix the above problem? I've spent 4hours on google, looking for solutions and i dont see any

(if this is the wrong forum to ask this i apologize in advance)

Rather use DotNetNuke...

I would help, but Windows errors scare me

Screw it, I have no idea why configuring PHPNuke is so complicated, i gave up on the problem.

I'm just going to play around with phpfusion / joomla and other CMSs

thanks anyway

Again, try DNN!

I would agree with that. If the bloke is ganna use Vista to host something sick might as well be .net nuke.

Well, Vista is a horrible OS to host anything on. Rather get XP SP2 then if it should be Windows... Better yet, get hold of a Windows Server, pref. 2003.
