Error at Installation.

Hello!

This is the first time i ever use vbulletin so i don't know anything.:hissyfit:
I am trying to install version 3.7.4.
Well i followed the directions.
It says:"The first thing you must do is to rename this file from config.php.new to config.php (removing the temporary .new extension)."
At my folder i have 2 config files.
This : config.php And this:
config.php.new
So when i tried to rename the one with the .new extension i got the error that there is another file with the same name.
So i left it as it was.
And edited the config file.
I am not sure i typed what exactly i should type but i am sure that these are right.

When i uploaded the files at the server and directed my browser to the install page i got this error:"
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ')' in /home/myroot/public_html/forum/includes/functions.php on line 37
"
What is that??
What can i do??


Thank you for your time!

that line should have your license there try checking it again.

Line 37: define('COOKIE_SALT', 'VVLXXXXow2');

Try uploading everything except config.new file(delete it),leave old one there,and try install,works most of time

lol,
the installtion insrtuctions are being given with every vB File.

@pspuser007
I recommend you to use the "vB 3.7.4 GYSN NULL PROPER" version.

it works fine.

@swapnil0545 Thanks a lot my friend!!

Guys about the config php what exactly i have to edit?

[loki]

try this,

1st. find ****** DATABASE NAME ******, and insert your sql DB name
2nd. find"****** TECHNICAL EMAIL ADDRESS ******" and add your email address
3rd.find"****** MASTER DATABASE USERNAME & PASSWORD ******" and insert your sql database user name and password

save it and upload to server
