| This error means that a script is trying to run (usually the SQL install script for an extension) in a directory where scripts are not allowed to run as defined in your php.ini or Apache config file (depending on your configuration). This is a security feature designed to disallow untrusted scripts to run – more info here
To resolve this you should either comment out the line or add in the directory where the script lies, on a standard install the line is commented out (see screen shot attached).
