Felix Laate	Monday 31 March 2008 12:54:51 am Hi carolus, welcome to the community :-) Syntax errors where not extinguished with PHP5 as far as I know. I think your error has to do with your code. Check if you somewhere have a "," where you should have had a "(". Felix Publlic Relations Manager Greater Stavanger www.greaterstavanger.com
Karlheinz Laping	Monday 31 March 2008 1:33:03 am Hi, thanks for the quick answer. I checked the index.php. I use the original index.php with the following code which seems okay to me: $logMap = array( 'notice' => eZDebug::LEVEL_NOTICE, 'warning' => eZDebug::LEVEL_WARNING, 'error' => eZDebug::LEVEL_ERROR, Some other observations: (1) The setup wizard worked properly. At the end of the installation process I also get thousands of strange strings like 'Л' => 'L', 'К' => 'K', 'Й' on the screen but also the message that I can lock in. May be that this means something for you. (2)I repeated the installation severals times but the results have been the same ones. Sometimes I also get the message: "Fatal error: Exponential did not finish its request. The execution of Exponential was abruptly ended, the debug output is present below." (3) Further, the site cannot completely be opened. At the beginning I am asked for the port of the mysql database. I do not know what to entry so I let the field free carolus
Kristof Coomans	Tuesday 01 April 2008 12:44:07 am Hi Carolus The parse error really looks like you are using PHP 4 instead of PHP 5, see http://issues.ez.no/11722. Are you really sure you are using PHP 5? Put a phpinfo file ( http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.phpinfo.php ) on your web server and access it to know all details about the PHP that Apache is using. Further, (1) seems to be this issue: http://issues.ez.no/8969 independent eZ Publish developer and service provider \| http://blog.coomanskristof.be \| http://ezpedia.org
Karlheinz Laping	Thursday 03 April 2008 12:39:47 pm Hi Kristof, I definitely have php5 on my server. I checked it with phpinfo(). Also, I contacted the support team of the provider and they confirmed. The issue must be a different one. I do not have any idea what to do. carolus

Kristof Coomans	Saturday 26 July 2008 12:02:18 pm Hi You are using wrong quotes. Use either straight double " or straight single ' quotes. Please keep in mind that this forum is dedicated to Exponential, and not to PHP itself. So might be better to look for another forum to post your PHP related questions. Thank you and good luck! independent eZ Publish developer and service provider \| http://blog.coomanskristof.be \| http://ezpedia.org
