Installing and Connecting to Tempo Social

That certainly explains that. How, then, do I get access to an installation which is running a sufficient version? I am attempting to install on my own dev machine, but the guides that I'm looking at aren't as clear as I'd hope. So far, I have installed Portal 8.2 (which is apparently required for an upgrade to 8.3?), pointing to a local SQL Server 2k8R2 install, but I've only caused my Tomcat (7.0.47) installation to fail to start.

Edit:

OK, I found that the TS database setup didn't, well, it didn't happen. Not sure why. Went through the manual steps, and am at the point where I should be able to navigate to http://localhost:8080/portal/console. When I do, it redirects to http://localhost:8080/portal/console/c_id.vgn_system_component/d_id.d_login/flg_proclgnrq.1/, which returns with HTTP 200, but the content-length is 0. Unclear how to proceed from here. I figure I must have missed something in configuration? (I haven't installed Social Communities yet, just the base Portal.)

Edit2:

Found the following in Portal's logs...

[Removed stack trace...]

Please let me know if there's some other information which may be useful in debugging...

Edit3:

OK, found that I had the wrong collation set in my database. Fixing that allows me to log into the portal console, but anything I request in the left-hand column gives this error:

Edit4:

Side note, I installed Collaborative Patch "20131213-portal82-sp3-cumulative.zip".
