'Database Connection Failed' after completed Installation

Hi,

I'm using CMS Made Simple 1.0.2.
My Site is hosted at Lycos with modified PHP called PHP4u 3.0 (based on PHP 4.3.2)
MySQL 3.23.57
Apache ??? on Debian Linux
The installation worked properly from step 1 to 12.
CMSMS was able to connect to the database and created some tables.
But when I wanted to go to step 13 and visit my site I got the message:

Parse error: parse error in *homedirectory*/config.php on line 63
Database Connection failed

When I go to "http://www.mysite.com/index.php" or "http://www.mysite.com/admin/index.php" I get the same error.
I looked at the source of config.php and found this in line 63:

$config['max_upload_size'] = ;

I don't think this line connects to the database...
So I'm quite confused and don't know what to do.
Could you please help me get the CMS running?


thanks
Florian

the problem is a parse error that got introduced somewhere.  Try putting a value of 2000000 in there (before the semi colon) and see if the parse error goes away.
