Thanking all in advance.

Hi Michele,

Are you aware of other services running on your server? Have you tried installing without demo data?

Thanks,

Will.

Hey Will,

Thanks so much…install worked perfectly without populating demo data.

I’m also interested if the warnings will give me problems later on for workflow or reporting when I attempt to use these functions.

Cheers!
Michele

Hi Michele,

The warnings can be turned off/sent to an error logging file by modifying your error logging in your php.ini, if you wish to fix them. Only Fatal Errors should effect the running of your CRM.

Thanks,

Will.

I had a similar error to this, but it was caused by the site trying to display too many rows in the Lead list. Changing the “Listview items per page” under System Settings to a lower value solved the problem for me.
