 * On step 2 I get :
    Option Tables created okay. Database error: [You have an error
   in your SQL syntax near ‘Array’ at line 1] Array ( It does this about 100 times)
   Geo option data inserted okay. OK. We’re nearly done now. We just need to ask
   you a couple of things: etc… Any idea whats causing this and how I can fix it?

 * Exact same problem here.
    Fresh install. Client did it, I was consulted, I had
   the problem repeat on me.
 * Php 4.3.10
    up to date Zend Optimizer Apache 1.3.33
 * any clues here?

    Edit for Additional info.
 * From the error log – The first occasion of an error there looks to be
    `PHP Warning:
   preg_match() expects parameter 2 to be string, array given in /home/webname/public_html/
   blog/wp-admin/ upgrade-functions.php on line 273
 * I get nine or so of those in a row, and then a repeat of the same error on the
   same page at
    line 379 for about 30 or more times, and then again for line 440
   for about 25 times and then the whole thing bails with: `PHP Fatal error: Call
   to undefined function: array() in /home/webname/public_html/blog/wp-includes/
   functions.php on line 1129
