TestLink Setup error

Post by prabhat »

I had installed testlink 1.6 + PHP 4.4.6 + Mysql 5.0.

Still i am getting the following error:

Checking PHP version:
Failed! - You are running on PHP 4.4.6, and TestLink requires PHP 5.0.0 or greater


Warning!: You are using a M$ Operating System, be careful with authentication problems
between PHP 4 and the new MySQL 4.1.x passwords
Read this MySQL - A.2.3. Client does not support authentication protocol

Checking if PEAR modules are installed:Failed! - Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer PEAR Module is required.
Seehttp://pear.php.net/package/Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer for additional information

Unfortunately, TestLink setup cannot continue at the moment, due to the above 2 errors . Please correct the errors, and try again. If you need help figuring out how to fix the problems, please read the documentation in the TestLink Wiki, or visit the TestLink Forums.

-. According to me testlink 1.6 supports php 4.4, so what could be the reason
