Problem while upgrading to 2.1

  • I followed all the steps of the upgrade but when I tried to run the upgrade program:
    https://www.websage.net/wordpress/wp-admin/upgrade.php
    I got the following error message:

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘;’, expecting T_VARIABLE or ‘$’ in /home/websagen/public_html/wordpress/wp-includes/post.php on line 828

    This looks very similar to previous problems I had when I tried to upgrade to a previous version. Any assistance would be appreciated!

    Thanks in advance!

    I deleted all the files, deleted the database, everything. Tried installing 2.1 from scratch and got the same error. Any idea what is going on??

    I tried to install WP 2.1 in a totally new installation on another host and got the same error:

    https://strannik.net/wp-admin/install.php

    Parse error: parse error, unexpected ‘;’, expecting T_VARIABLE or ‘$’ in /home/strann2/public_html/wp-includes/post.php on line 828

    Would anyone pay attention to this request for help???

    This second time did you try to use a fresh copy of the files/package or the same one as in your previous attempt? It sounds like a corrupted file (it happens more often than you’d think!) -so, I’d try it again with a new download.
