  • That’s raw PHP source. Your server isn’t parsing PHP for some reason. Are you sure that your host server is running PHP?

    Hi apljdi

    thank you for that I will find out

    Hi minniemaverick, I’ve got the same problem – do you find out solution?

    I got it!
    I’ve spent three days trying and failing, but it’s done.

    Many newbies asked for this error page, many wise people told, that is cause of PHP parsing error, missing characters ?> in php files ….. but solution is simply:

    error page appears when install.php is opened in browser in FTP mode.
    When you type https://full-path-to-install.php-or-setup-config.php – everything is OK.

    Enjoy wp !

    I am brand new and setting this up for the first time. When I get to step 4 of the famous five minute install I get stuck. How do I upload everything? I’m on day three! Need help, please.

This all certainty, data base, user, password… what to make? Abra?os wilton.araxa

    @ Mike_Wolff

    1) Get an FTP client– Filezilla, for example.
    2) Login to your web hosting account.
    3) Find the server document root. This can vary with hosts. It might be ‘htdocs’, or ‘www’, or ‘public’, or really just about anything else. You’ll have to get the information from your web host if you don’t have it.
    4) Download the latest WordPress zip or gz file, extract and upload everything inside the wordpress folder but not the folder itself (unless you want the blog to be in https://<sitename>/wordpress/)

    @ wilton.araxa

    You have a bad edit in your wp-config.php. Check out the installation troubleshooting page.

    @ apljdi

    Olá my friend, all good? There following, I obtained to edit wp-config.php with a text publisher, removing 3 characters that confused, there I adjusted 2 errors, but one third error exists that does not allow that the installation is made.

    A great one I hug

    @wilton.araxa: sounds like MySQL isn’t installed on your windows host or could be an older version. Talk to your host and tell them you’re trying to install WordPress and need at least version 4 or newer of MySQL.

    Hi –

    I am having a mixed “successful” install of WordPress 2.8.6 on my localhost Apache/MySQL Web server[XAMPP = Apache 2.2, PHP 5.3.0 MySQL 5.1.37]

    The blog appears but every page and posting is filled with warning messages like the following:

    Warning: date() [function.date]: It is not safe to rely on the system’s timezone settings. You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected ‘America/New_York’ for ‘-5.0/no DST’ instead in C:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress\wp-includes\functions.php on line 43

    So I immediately went into Settings and changed the the Time to Toronto and the time format and date format choice .

    Yes, I remembered to save the changes.

    No – it is still spouting out error/warning messages on every page!
    Any help would be appreciated.

    JBSurveyer

    @jsurveyer: please don’t hijack a thread. Date errors are a PHP deal: WordPress ? Support ? Php 5.3.0 & WP 2.8 (It is not safe to rely on the system’s timezone)

    j’regret becoup comme Monseieur Blanfein, CEO de Goldman Sachs, telle un erreur grande –
    c’est dommage.

    Jacques

    I’m getting the same error message. I’ve tried installing directly onto the Mac as well as on the server via FTP.

    This is very frustrating. I’m a newbie and not a programmer, and trying to learn, but this so-called easy 5 minute installation has taken me days and still isn’t working. I wish there was telephone support.

    My host server is running PHP.

    If I try to do it on my computer directly using MAMP, i get the same error message the first poster outlined.

    Please help!!!
