Hi Dennis, I can confirm I got the same error message regarding PDF::API2. I don't know if it matters at all because I haven't tested any of the barcode stuff yet. There's one change I had to make in the koha.mysql file before installing. Search for return and change it to `return`. Not sure what's causing your Access Denied errors for kohaadmin. Looks like you were able to connect to MySQL the first time and create the Koha database however this will prevent successfully installing thereafter. Here's what I used to uninstall my partial install when I was still figuring it out. # to remove koha config files: rm /etc/koha* # to remove web sites: (default path is different) rm -rf /var/www/koha # to remove koha database mysqladmin -f -uroot -p drop Koha mysql -uroot -p -Dmysql -e"delete from user where user='kohaadmin'" mysql -uroot -p -Dmysql -e"delete from db where user='kohaadmin'" # reload mysql mysqladmin -uroot -p reload #If doing a full uninstall don't forget to remove the "Include /etc/koha-httpd.conf" line at the end of apache config file.

I installed Koha 2.2.8 on a Fedora Core 5 with Apache 2.2.4, MySQL 5.0.37. In the Perl Modules, I got this message in red: PERL MODULES Checking perl modules ...
