This bug reporting system isn't really meant for support questions to be 
honest, and this isn't a bug :)

First error you get is 'address is in use', which means something else is 
listening to the same port as you 
configured the chat server for.

Secondly judging from the file paths, it seems your trying to run the chat 
server inside of a webserver, which 
is not what it's made for ... its a stand alone program that you run from the 
command line, so something like:

# /usr/bin/php -Cq /path/to/chat.php

The last error your get is about your php.ini configuration, where you didn't 
configure the timezone setting 
correctly, so has nothing to do with this program at all :)

There's some basic information about how to setup an IRC server to use with 
webchat, and how to run the 
chat daemon on the website:
http://www.chabotc.com/webchat/

I'd suggest getting started by reading that first :)
