 * hello, fyi – i’m using wp version 2.9.2 (not available in version drop-down)
 * I’ve just installed latest version wp 2.9.2 to server with php 5.3.2, it ran 
   along prompting me for username etc but when it goes to the following url:
 * “[http://www.rothwellgr.com/wordpress/wp-admin/&#8221](http://www.rothwellgr.com/wordpress/wp-admin/&#8221);
 * I get the following error:
 * “Fatal error: Call to undefined function get_option() in /home/rothgr/public_html/
   wordpress/wp-admin/admin.php on line 22”,
 * I’ve tried uploading the wp-admin and wp-admin and wp-includes again… no luck,
   if somebody can help me with this much appreciated

 * Line 22 is around the database password. Maybe the previous line is not quoted
   properly or is missing the semi-colon. Or the secret key in wp-config.php change
   it into a string of letters only. My guess is that you have an error in wp-config.
   php and if you fix that, things will probably be OK.
