[Lazarus] TUTF8Parser.HandleString; error

[Eduard Filipas]

hi Matias i'm haveing problem i cant recompile lazarus with a FPC 2.4.2..
same problem happened when i tried to use FPC 2.4.2 with lazarus .28
I would like to start using Lazarus but now i dont know where to start..
the downloaded version of lazarus that comes with FPC 2.2.4
i tried to alter it to FPC 2.4.2
there are some database issues in previus versions so i tried to update FPC
when i change dir paths of enviroment to newest FPC theres all this 
nagging from ide that path is not correct and that files cannot be found 
but they are there..basicaly i just installed FPC 2.4.2 to 
C:\lazarus\fpc\2.4.2 and change paths from 2.2.4 to 2.4.2
compile starts but then lcl is giveing me problems..
it compiles fine with 2.2.4.

Regards
