Can not complete the installation of ver. 2.6.3

[koda]

Hello,

I'm doing a new (fresh) install of phpMyfaq v. 2.6.3. After filling out the necessary parameters (MySQL hostname, username/password, admin-info, etc...) and starting the installation.... then the progress-bar runs a few seconds, but then i halts (stops) with this error message:

Code: Select all

Fatal error: Encoding declaration pragma must be the very first statement in the script in /opt/lampp/htdocs/inc/Link.php on line 31

I'm running my own server - with these software versions:
Apache ver. 2.2.14
php-ver. 5.3.1
MySQL ver. 5.0.5

I actually tried phpMyfaq version 2.6.2 also - but with the exact same result.... What could be wrong?

Hi,

this seems to be a PHP bug: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=50464

Please try to remove the line 31 in inc/Link.php or re-compile your PHP.

bye
Thorsten
