Wikimedia - php4

[Vizion <vizion@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi


I have just installed wikimedia on freebsd 5.3 with php4-4.4.0. 

After starting the program after a "successful" installation I get the error 
messages shown below. There are three eror from two lines of code. I have 
included the relevant code.

Having just started to learn php, I am not competent to know how 
to set about solving this.

Does anyone here have any idea what may be wrong or do you happen to know of a 
suitable forum or mailing list that could be helpful

Thanks in advance

david
