Textpattern new installation 4.6.2

Hi,

today I have to make a new website for my group. Uploading the content on the hosting was good.
Have a MySQL-Database too, for 5.6.19.. The new domain has set to the new file with the uploaded new txp 4.6.2.

But I can’t start the setup from textpattern.
I get this:

Warning: Unexpected character in input: ‘\’ (ASCII=92) state=1 in /…/textpattern/setup/index.php on line 39

Warning: Unexpected character in input: ‘\’ (ASCII=92) state=1 in /…/textpattern/setup/index.php on line 39

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /…/textpattern/setup/index.php on line 39

What I can do now?

“Uploading the content on the hosting”

what content are your referring to?

Have you tried a simple Instal of a brand new out of the box Textpattern generic site first?

Is yourr MySQL DB a new empty db?

Re: Textpattern new installation 4.6.2

the content – sorry, I was not accurate in my description.
I mean the one downloaded txp-install-download 4.6.2, which I have uploaded it on my webhosting. There in the file is nothings other as the downloaded txp-files.

My english is not very good. What do you mean with “txp generic site”? Do you mean this: http://textpattern.com/download:“http://textpattern.com/download” ?

After upload the all files from the downloaded TXP 4.6.2 I have start on my domain with
domain.de/textpattern/setup .
But I get this three error-lines. I can’t start the setup.

The MySQL is not empty, there is another (old) txp-installation. But how can get the new not-installed textpattern the content from the database? This has not a connection to that, because this is to make in the setup, which I can’t enter it. So I think, the error is not in the MySQL-Database.

By the way: It should have not a problem with other content in the database, because I can choose a table-prefix for the new website.

Re: Textpattern new installation 4.6.2

the php-Version: 5-STABLE-STANDARD, 5.2.17
I see, this have a save preference. Maybe this is the problem?

I can go to a higher php-Version, should i do it?

Yes, you need 5.3 at least, and the higher the better.

Edit: though, php7 could break some plugins. Try 5.4, to see.

Re: Textpattern new installation 4.6.2

php should be safe to try. Start with 7.0.6, then downgrade to some stable version if something does not work.

Re: Textpattern new installation 4.6.2

It means you are still on 5.2 for me, or the request is cached. Try hard-reload (ctrl-F5 or something). If it does not help, wait a little, maybe the server needs some time to restart php.
