Having some issues myself. Just downloaded the most recent version. Registered all of the ocx files fine. When I start eqitmes it gives the db connection error, suggests some missing version fields in variables tables, then if I click off the music on the splash screen and click lets start, the gui actually launches. Not sure if this means it should work because at the splash screen it said db connect FAIL.
Here is my logfile contents:
