Install help

Post by theyapps »

I am sorry if this has been covered else where. I tried searching and couldn't find it.

I am trying to install version 1.8.2, I uploaded all the files, navigated to my URL and I get the following error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in /home/cyber25/public_html/places/lib/test.functions.php on line 36
Will provide info as requested thanks.

Hi all. This is my first post and I'm not sure if the forum rules would demand that I open a new topic. Tell me if it is better open a new thread, please.

My problem is identical to the problem of theyapps. When I navigated to the URL for install, I get the same error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in /web/htdocs/mysite.org/cms/lib/test.functions.php on line 36
As far as I know, I have no problem with system requirements.
My PHP is 5.2.14, Tokenizer Support enabled, well over 16mb of memory avalaible, GD Support enabled ... My host is aruba.it and I have installed ans tried antother CMS (Joomla) and forums (Icy Phoenix, phpBB..) without problem.

Sorry for my English, thanks in advance.

Are you sure?
Check your php version because, probably, you have php 4.4.9 set

No.... that is default for that host (with many many sites) and not for your specific site...
Control Panel > "Servizi Hosting Linux" > "Scelta della versione PHP" and after check "Test PHP - phpinfo()"

or upload (and browse) a php file in cmsms root with

Code: Select all

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

Ooopss... Thank you for that clarification!! I knew nothing of such information. I have updated my PHP version... and now I can access to the CMSMS installer!

Thanks a lot, really.

Users - as me - who are ignorant on technical matters greatly appreciate your help.
