Problems with installation of webauction.

[S7N]

Hi,
Im new to the whole lot of the php, xhtml mysql etc, so helping me may be kinda hard . infact i started to learn 3weeks ago lol.
I am trying to intall the bidding script to a site that i have made/making.

i have set up the username, database & password and also added them to the conf.ini and uploaded a seperate file in the public_html (For the script)



Heres the error log -

Warning: Error parsing conf.ini on line 39 in /home/mattbarb/public_html/webauction-0.3.2/index.php on line 8

Warning: Error parsing /home/mattbarb/public_html/webauction-0.3.2/conf.ini on line 39 in /home/mattbarb/public_html/webauction-0.3.2/dataface/Dataface/Application.php on line 176
Error loading config file

Any ideas....

Well. It says it is having trouble parsing the config file on line 8. So the best thing to do is look on line 8 of your conf.ini file and see what you have there. Most likely you forgot to close a quotation. It is also possible that you edited the file in a text editor that adds hidden gibberish characters that cause it to be parsed incorrectly.

Firstly let me say WOW, that was a fast response .
Ok so if that is the conf.ini file that may be corrupt with an extra tag or something, is that posibly causing the 2 other error messages? ( i edit it in dreamweaver is that ok? a silly question i know but as i said i am very new to this and will not lie, i am lacking loads of knowledge on the whole web design front.)Only one way to learn..................





ohhh
seems i needed that " lol at the end of password
