CPG 1.4.8 - Error after installation is successful

[callingrohit]

Hi,

I uploaded the contents of cpg148 and chmod album and include folders. Ran the install script...got successful message. Clicked on
login or continue to logon to the system.

I get the following error then,
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_VARIABLE or '$' in /usr/shared/web/george/IMP/cpg148/include/functions.inc.php on line 1790

What should I do now I have no idea....please help...

thanks

Re-upload the files.

Hi nibbler,

do you mean to say I should upload all the files of cpg148...10 MB.....it took a long time....can't i just upload all the include files ?

What does that error actually mean ? because i checked 1790 line under functions.inc.php and i didn't see any syntax error there....

cheers

If re-uploading didn't help, then there are two other possible reasons for that error message:

• the files are already broken on your client (in this case, re-download the coppermine package from a different mirror)
• There's something fishy with your FTP client. Make sure that you're using a real FTP app (like FileZilla, SmartFTP or WS_FTP), not some crap like MS Frontpage. Make sure that you're usingg the proper FTP mode.

Hi,

I use CUTE FTP PRO and the mode is always auto and the ftp client is intelligent enough to upload the files in correct mode. I have been using it since last 3 years and never faced a problem.

But I think on the first point you may be right that maybe the actual file while downloading may be corrupted. I'll download it again and see how it goes....

by the way I would also like to congratulate you guys for making such a wonderful software. Its just awesome.....there are so many possibilities and its totally adaptable...best is the MAC OS X theme...i loved it....which files should i touch if i would like to modify the whole theme and create a customised one.....
i'll do the download and upload tonite....will let you know how it goes....

cheers

Don't! It makes the subsequent answer look silly and msiplaced. Leave your posting as it is, go back to solving your issue by doing as suggested.

Hi,

i deleted all my files from the webhost. Uploaded all of them again and successfully configured it.

Now, this time I didn't get the error i pasted above but got a blank page at the following link
http://www.georgesofnorwood.com.au/IMP/cpg/login.php

Now what do you think might be the problem.

Thanks

So you swapped one error with a completely different one. Sigh. You should have done exactly as suggested - instead of deleting everything and starting over, I recommend to do what supporters advice if you actually want support.
Blank pages usually are being caused be white space or blank lines being in a file. Edit login.php with a plain-ext editor. Make sure that it doesn't contain anything (no spaces nor line breaks) after the ending tag

Code Select Expand

I've got the old error (function.inc.php line 1790)
May be your host disabled urldecode or getimagesize functions of php ask them for support

hi,

sorry i should have said that after reloading all files once i deleted all the files, i got the blank page. So I thought maybe the include folder got corrupted...so i deleted the include folder and uploaded that folder again. tried the install didn't work.

Third try......i removed everything and uploaded all files again, set permissions correctly on albums and include folder to 777 and installed the software. installed correctly...sql tables formed.....clicked on "Lets continue or login" to logon...blank page...refreshed the page got the same error with which i started this topic
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_VARIABLE or '$' in /usr/shared/web/george/IMP/cpg/include/functions.inc.php on line 1790

The file"login.php" has been checked...it has no spaces or line breaks after the ending tag of php.

thanks

Is there a way to get around this or do I need to get them to enable it because not sure if they will if they have disabled it ......

Ans to 1- This has been done. I had downloaded my file from europe...now i did it from australia.
Ans to 2- using CUTE FTP PRO.

urldecode or getimagesize functions are not disabled by our host....
