Install Error

[Alex Reid]

Hey Guys,Uploaded all the files ,changed the permissions to 777 of certain files, go to the install file (install.php) and I get:Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ')', expecting '(' in /home/flamingol/domains/jet2-virtual.co.uk/public_html/phpvms_full/install/install.php on line 29Doesn't install. Any ideas?Regards,Alex

Hey there,Interesting. Try reuploading the file. I just checked the line (http://phpvms.devjavu.com/browser/trunk ... ll.php#L29), weird spot for an error. Try reuploading though.Also, just checking, you're running PHP 5?Nabeel

I'm getting exactly the same issue;

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ')', expecting '(' in /home/flygroup/public_html/vms/install/install.php on line 29

PHP version 5.2.5MySQL version 4.1.22

Have you found out the problems or a fix for this problem?Thanks.

Try reuploading the entire package from scratch (redownload, etc). I've seen that before when a file did not completely upload properly (ftp programs do that often, if there's a hiccup).If that doesn't work we can go from there.

[PKnight]

Nope, deleted previous upload. Re downloaded, re uploaded and still the same Parse error.

Can you zip up and send install/install.php to me? nabeel at nsslive dot netIt's a really odd error.Edit:I just downloaded the "full install" from the "downloads" section, and checked out the install.php, didn't spot any errors. Just ran the install as well, seemed to work fine.Are you running a Windows or Linux server?

[PKnight]

I'm running Linux and I'll forward that file to you now.Update: File sent in Email awaiting response.

Thanks, sorry for the late reply:Very odd, I don't see any problems.Do you get any errors running the install file from the command line? (it won't install, but might be interesting to see if it errors, to eliminate an apache error).The command would be:/usr/bin/php -f /path/to/install.php

Hello I have exactly the same mistake on airwallonie.be

[Nabeel]

Which PHP version? I'm wondering if it has to do with that, though I'm running 5.2 myself.Can you also try running it from the command line as above?

[learjet]

the problem is fixed my version of PHP was not correct it works

Good to hear, some hosts offer both 4 and 5, and 5 sometimes has to be enabled through an htaccess or something.
