Turns out that I didn't have to. I did a complete re-install and didn't get those errors anymore...except now I'm experiencing other problems (404 File Not Found) for which I am researching the forums for solution.

Answers found so far is : .htaccess issues or path to a file not correct during install (like the usr/bin/ffmpeg, etc....) OR I have to have the domain working. I'm still checking these things. Right now I am using the default URL's for the account until I set the nameservers on the domain.

If I get to a point of exhaustion, I'll post a request. If all else fails, I'll have someone else install this thing.

Thanks for your quick responses, however!!!

SOLUTION FOUND!!! You need a "regular" domain name in place (DO NOT use the default web host settings [ie: http://user.yourwebhost.com/~youraccount]).
