Issue with FTP and bookmark.php/customize-base.js

Hi all,

I’ve been trying to get through the installation process for hours now and am getting kinda frustrated, since I keep getting the same error over & over again, as soon as I press the install button:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /public/sites/www.zondagmanagement.nl/wp-admin/includes/bookmark.php on line 290

I think the error occurs due to a problem uploading the two files mentioned in the topic title. I’ve uploaded and deleted the whole wordpress folder content a few times now, but every single time Filezilla keeps telling me, that both files already exist and if I want to override them… However, if I choose that option (or any other option for that matter – and yes I’ve tried them all!) the transfer failes.

I also tried adding the files manually, i.e. once by adding/overriding (got the same failure message) and once by deleting the file from the site folder and adding it manually.

All to no avail; same error!

Can someone please help me? I have another website and didn’t have these problems, I do think I installed WP 3.9.1 then though, is there a possibility that might be an issue..??

Your help will be very very VERY much appreciated! I need to get the website online asap and am nearly losing my wits… 😉

Kindest regards,
Natasja
