Hi,

try this:

Open the Simese.ini file and check the path of php.
It should look like this.

; Location of php
PHP=%Application%phpphp-cgi.exe

If not change it, restart SC and try again.

[EDIT]
You maybe should use now Marco's new 2.5.7-version, and your problems will be gone!

Hi,Thnaks for the info.
None of the above steps worked. i installed 2.5.7 and also looked at simese.ini and it was OK.

However, i noticed that the directories had been installed as read only. Once I changed their permissions it worked!

many thanks.

Which directories did you make writable? And is your simese.ini located in the program files folder or the AppData..... folder?
