    I’m trying to install WordPress for the first time. I changed all my info in the wp-config.php and I opened up the install.php file ina browser, but I got some errors:
    Parse error: parse error in /home/tcorg/public_html/wp-config.php on line 7
    Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/tcorg/public_html/wp-admin/install.php on line 47
    Anyone know what’s wrong? I haven’t changed anything else. Please help!

    That means you have an error in your wp-config.php file. I would compare that file to the wp-config-sample.php file and make sure you don’t have any unclosed quotes or extra lines.

    I am a new user and had the same problem.
    Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/ritesh/public_html/blog/wp-admin/install.php on line 47
    “That means you have an error in your wp-config.php file. I would compare that file to the wp-config-sample.php file and make sure you don’t have any unclosed quotes or extra lines.”
    I checked up on what is said above and everything I have done is acc to the instructions, but while doing something, i once got the error saying
    “COuldnt write, you might have to change permissions, or You manually configured wp-config.php”
    Someone please help!
