[Koha] Problems with Koha and windows 98

Hi

I am testing out Koha on Windows 98 - for a group we have here in Malawi. We
want to see how well Koha works with windows 98 as we have lots of machine
like that in Malawi.

I followed the installation guide and managed to install all components. I
run into trouble when I try to run Koha.

I have windows 98, RAM 64mb and am using Mozilla Firefox, version 1.5.0.3 as
the web browser. When I type in localhost in Mozilla I get the start up
window for Koha - Welcome to Koha 2.2.4 and it either freezes or I get the
following message.

*Server error!*
The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your
request.
Error message:
Premature end of script headers: opac-main.pl
If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.
Error 500
localhost
10/15/06 10:29:47
Apache/2.0.59 (Win32)

I have no idea how to fix this problem. Has any one any experience with
installing and using Koha on windows 98.

ERROR MESSAGES from other sources are copied below.

Sincerely

Teza
