Joomla! should install or run, but you might have difficulty making use of some features.

Advisories:
save_session.path is not writable. You may observe Administrator login issues.
magic_quotes is disabled, this is not essential for Joomla! to function but aids in securing your web site to some degree. Your installation can continue with this setting.

This Script is only designed to Assess or Pre-Check Joomla! v1.0 installations, if you have Joomla! v1.5 installed we will not detect the instance. You may download your own copy of Joomla! from the Joomla! Forge
