Odd Installation error


Nobody

Anonymous
I get the following error after hitting 'next' on the initial install page:


Parse error: parse error in D:/Program Files/apachefriends/xampp/htdocssites/geeklogconfig.php on line 72


I removed some of the comments in the config file because line 72 was a comment (WTF?!!?) and then it pointed to line 62, which is this:
$_CONF['path_html'] = $_CONF['path'] . 'public_html';


It is a parse error, but I don't see any problem. All preceeding lines end with semicolons and use single-quotes appropriately.

Any thoughts?

Are you using backslahses in your paths? Those are used to escape characters, which would explain the parse errors.

Use forward slashes '/' everywhere. Yes, they work under Windows.

bye, Dirk
