That is about 1/5 of what I'm seeing, and it is everywhere there is a call to the forum, even in the admin menus for the forum. As you can see I am running from xampp on a local machine.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

did you check your joomla or kunena version?
because i just installed installed joomla 1.6 and kunena 1.6.4 and there was no error!

i just did some search:
its a common issue in joomla 1.6 and there is a topic in joomla forum to solve it:
forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?p=2493923
of course i didnt try it since i didnt have same problem!!

Hello,

What Kunena version are-you using ?

k1.6 works well under php 5.3+

Yes, most of the code was written by using PHP <5.3, which still allowed static calls without marking functions as static and so on. We are slowly (in 2.0) getting rid of these notices, but there's no plan to fix all of them until Joomla changes it's API to work in the strict mode.

BTW: those are actually not errors of any kind, they are just a bad way to write code in PHP 5.3 (legacy from PHP4).

Hi, dear KUNENA - supporters. Just today I tried to install your newest KUNENA - Release (1.7.2). I'm running joomla! Ver 2.5.3 on my localhost (xampp. Just started using Joomla! 3 days ago.)When installing your newest version, I instantly received the following error message below (I added the complete config - setting error message as an attachment):
