• I have reinstalled my windows 2003 server, installed php 5.1.1, apache 2.0.55 and mysql 5.0 using this guide http://www.ricocheting.com/server/mysql.html. Before the reinstalltion I where using php 5 something and mysql 4.1. Not sure what apache version I was using.

    I have backups of the htdocs folder and the databases. I restored using mysql administrator and it reports that went ok. Copied back the htdocs folder.

    Here’s where the problem starts, as soon as I try to run my wordpress site it just turns up blank. No error messages, no nothing. If I check the apache error log this is what I see:

    [client 127.0.0.1] PHP Parse error: parse error, unexpected $end in C:\\Program Files\\Apache Group\\Apache2\\htdocs\\wp-content\\plugins\\bstat.php on line 1152, referer: http://localhost

    I thought I made an error somewhere so I reinstalled the server again but the same error shows. Can anyone help me please, thanks in advance!

  • Delete the bstat plugin, and try changing themes ?

    You can alter the theme in the database (wp_options table) using phpmyadmin.

    I just went through the exact same process and am having the same problem. It is connecting properly to mySQL, and php is running properly, because I can run the upgrade.php. But I get the same blank page and same error.

    I should probably mention mine is with a different plugin…sorry. [Sun Dec 18 10:19:58 2005] [error] [client 192.168.1.1] PHP Parse error: parse error, unexpected $end in c:\\Program Files\\Apache Group\\Apache2\\htdocs\\poker\\wp-content\\plugins\\wieonline.php on line 76

    Did you try the suggested solution?

    Didn’t help. Removing the plugins resulted in the same error on the index.php.

    I still haven’t gotten this working. Even tried upgrading one of the blogs I host to 2.0 but no luck. Anyone else had any success?

    Bumping this in hopes that the 3rd time is the charm. Still having this problem. Current harddrive is failing, so need a solution soon 🙁

    Edit the php.ini if youre using PHP5 and up.

    zend.ze1_compatibility_mode = Off <- set to On
    safe_mode = Off
    register_globals = Off <- set to On
    pgp_magic_quotes = Off <- set to On

    Might work on the plugin incompatability issue
