To post a comment you must log in.
I read the log files and they said the error was caused due to a unsupported zlib installation.
I had previously installed zlib version 1.2.5 in my system which was not what the installation script expected.
Once i removed the links to that zlib version, it works fine.
This is NOT a bug anymore.
Thanks,
