parse error creating database

Post by turpentyne » Mon Mar 05, 2012 11:19 pm

Hi... I've set up joomla, just using the automated setup for a domain through Godaddy.com. This time, I'm trying to do it manually. I want to set it up in a specific folder so that I can apply a domain name to it later.

I uploaded the files into that folder, then tried to go through the installation. When I get to the database setup, It sets nothing up and I get this error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in filepath/html/redwhites/installation/views/database/tmpl/default.php on line 13

To see if it would work, I created my own empty database on the server, and hoped I could find where in the files to plug that info in to have it populate an existing database. But I can't find anything (if I can really even do it this way)

Any help would be appreciated.

on the file mentioned the first bits of code up to line 19 are below.I've done nothing to them. This is as downloaded from joomla:

Code: Select all

defined('_JEXEC') or die;
?>
<div id="step">
	<div class="far-right">
<?php if ($this->document->direction == 'ltr') : ?>
		<div class="button1-right"><div class="prev"><a href="index.php?view=license" onclick="return Install.goToPage('license');" rel="prev" title="<?php echo JText::_('JPrevious'); ?>"><?php echo JText::_('JPrevious'); ?></a></div></div>
		<div class="button1-left"><div class="next"><a href="#" onclick="Install.submitform();" rel="next" title="<?php echo JText::_('JNext'); ?>"><?php echo JText::_('JNext'); ?></a></div></div>
<?php elseif ($this->document->direction == 'rtl') : ?>

<?php endif; ?>
	</div>

You try delete line " syntax error, unexpected $end in filepath/html/redwhites/installation/views/database/tmpl/default.php on line 13 "
