Architecture / Installation

Ok... I unpacked all files in "tikiwiki-1.9.5.tar.gz" into my root-dir for
tikiwiki... Pointed my webbrowser to "http://example.com/tiki-install.php"
Logged in as admin then executed the script "tiki_1.8to1.9.sql" which is
what I understand should be the one to run... But I get many operations
"FAILED" It is so many that I'm not gonna post them here... Should I run
this script and is this "normal"?!???
