Parse Error When Installing

[Agent]

I'm trying install vBulletin on a host I just purchased a plan on but when I try to install, I get this error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /public_html/includes/config.php on line 35

My line 35 in config.php looks like this:

$config['Database']['tableprefix'] = '';

I haven't got a clue what the problem is or why this is happening, so any help or suggestions would be much appreciated.

This is the prefix for all your database tables. You have to enter something between the two single quotes, such as:

$config['Database']['tableprefix'] = 'vb_';

You can make this prefix anything you want. Using the above example, your tables would have names such as vb_users, vb_userlist, etc.

I've left it blank for multiple times when I installed vB in the past. I just tried adding vb_ as a tableprefix but I am still getting the same error.

Anyone have an idea? It happens on basically every single page I try to access (install.php, index.php, upgrade.php and etc.)

I'm not sure about that but try to upload the files again and start over.

Tried and failed. I've tried many different things now and it still doesn't work. I've used this same installation package multiple times and they've all been working flawlessly, so could it be the host causing the problem?

I would say that's a definite possibility. Check the host's php & MYSQL versions. Also their php parameters.
