    Okay. I would appreciate some help with this.

    Here's the message,

    wp-config.php file. I need this before we can get started. Need more help? We got it. You can create a wp-config.php file through a web interface, but this doesn't work for all server setups. The safest way is to manually create the file."); require('../wp-config.php'); timer_start(); require_once(ABSPATH . 'wp-admin/includes/upgrade.php'); if (isset($_GET['step'])) $step = (int) $_GET['step']; else $step = 0; @header('Content-Type: ' . get_option('html_type') . '; charset=' . get_option('blog_charset')); ?> >

    Any ideas...

    I forgot,

    In addition to that, my site http://www.profitablesistas.com

    also looks like this

    Warning: main(/home/profitab/public_html/wp-admin/includes/upgrade.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/profitab/public_html/wp-admin/upgrade.php on line 8

    Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required '/home/profitab/public_html/wp-admin/includes/upgrade.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/profitab/public_html/wp-admin/upgrade.php on line 8

    thanks but what didnt work? was there a line break? Because its still there, in other words, you didnt fix it.

    I can SEE the linebreak when I bring up this URL

    http://www.profitablesistas.com/wp-config.php

    and view the source. Its there, trust me.

    There was no line break at the top. I did however go to the bottom and delete the empty space at the bottom.

    I hope that is what you were instructing me to do. Am I right?

    there shouldnt be any spaces or linebreaks between the opening <?php or the closing ?> -- so if you remove some or one at the bottom, thats fine.

    Im telling you though, theres still spaces where they dont belong, I cant show you mine because it wont even let you bring up in browser, and Im not going to link to someone else's but when you click that link above to yours, and you view the source (in firefox), left click and run your mouse over the top left of the seemingly empty source, there's a cursor point -- that cursor point indicates theres a space in the file. Correctly edited wp-config.php files are completely empty, no cursors, no nothing. :)

    do this..

    get the sample wp-config.php out of the zip. edit it, (dont use MS word to edit), delete the current wp-config.php, and upload a new one.

    Remember NO spaces.

    Does this error mean I have a space on line 2 in settings?

    parse error: parse error, unexpected T_FUNCTION in /home/profitab/public_html/wp-settings.php on line 2

    the ftp info your host provided; either a hostname OR an IP address, and your ftp username and password. If youre uncomfortable with that, thats fine -- i can tell you though that I've been "around here" for 3 years, so Im pretty well known. You can check my profile, and my own site if you like.
