I have the following error after the language packs selection,

I am working on xampp version 1.6.7.

Fatal error: Call to undefined method domdocument::loadXML() in C:\xampp\htdocs\CMS\Exponential\kernel\setup\steps\ezstep_site_types.php on line 613
Fatal error: Exponential did not finish its request

The execution of Exponential was abruptly ended, the debug output is present below.

Please let me know the solution.

Hi,

according to http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/technical_manual/4_0/installation/normal_installation/requirements_for_doing_a_normal_installation
you need DOM extension enabled on your server.

Looking for information about SQLI ?

You should also make sure you disable the domxl extension, which is enabled on some xampp versions, and screws up the dom one (go ask the xampp devs why the enabled it by default). Search for domxml on this forum, you will find more info...
