Question

I tried to install openproject in windows 7 64 bit.

I followed the steps mentioned in openproject wiki, but cannot install it successfully, see the error log

Answer 1

jquery-migrate was added in dcde12a2277 which is not part of the current stable branch. It is currently only part of the dev branch (soon to be 4.0). So you seem to be on the dev branch.

Given that OP 4.0 will be released very soon, I would advise you to stick to using the dev branch so that you can save yourself the work of upgrading from 3.0 to 4.0.

Without being a Windows user myself, if you intend to use the upcoming 4.0 release already, Martin's advise is correct, you will need to install bower. The bower page explains how.
