I know that this bug has been idenfied and fixed recently (http://drupal.org/node/26033), but does anyone know of a work-around until a new Drupal version is released?

I tried using PHP 5.04 with no more success.

Thanks!

Hi.
I get stuck!
I have problems understanding the installation manual at http://drupal.org/node/260

1)

This will create a new directory drupal-x.x.x/ containing all
Drupal files and directories. Move the contents of that directory
into a directory within your web server's document root or your
public HTML directory:

mv drupal-x.x.x/* drupal-x.x.x/.htaccess /var/www/html

- What does it mean?
- Where is the web server's document root?

I just use third-party web hosting plan.
I'm using Windows XP.
I have a folder drupal-x.x.x
- Should I put it into the "public_HTML" or "www" folder?
- Should I put the whole (drupal-x.x.x) folder into the target folder?
Or should I copy the contents from the folder (BUT NOT the folder itself) into the target folder?

What does the line of code mean?
Where & how should I type this code?

2)

If you use a web-based control panel, you should be able
to upload the file 'database.mysql' from Drupal's 'database'
directory and run it directly as SQL commands.

From the command line, use (again, replacing 'nobody' and
'drupal' with your MySQL username and name of your database):

mysql -u nobody -p drupal < database/database.mysql

My web hoster has set the MySQL already.
- Do I need to do this step?

If so:
- upload 'database.mysql' to where?
