   No. All programs are written in Perl.

   The database parameters are not configured properly. In the file startup_download.pl near the top of the file there are parameters for host, database, username and password. If you have difficulty determining these values contact your hosting company for assistance.
   
   The same problem may arise for SQL QuickRegister. These parameters are in the file startup_quickregister.pl
