# Installing – config.php error

 *  [panikkarson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/panikkarson/)

 * [16 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/installing-configphp-error/)
 * version is 2.9.2
    Have changed only the database information as required, and
   uploaded all the files to host nearlyfreespeech.net. Not changed anything related
   to the wp-url. But when I try to go to [http://www.allaboutmanagingmoney.com/wp-admin/install.php](http://www.allaboutmanagingmoney.com/wp-admin/install.php)
   I get the message
 * ” Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING in /f5/managingmoney/
   public/wp-config.php on line 73″
 * (“managingmoney” is the short name given to the domain which is also accepted
   by the host). WP files were loaded into /public folder, not a separate wp folder.
 * Know no programming. Please help.

 * Thanks. That was fast. I have made the settings to mysql. I had already created
   the mysql process, now I have created the database (using the same name as for
   the process), now I have set the privileges.
 * In the config.php file, I have not touched the secret key part, which I plan 
   to do after the installation is running okay.
 * The message is “syntax error” so just to make sure that I had not added/deleted
   a comma or a space anywhere, I have re-downloaded wp and made necessary chanhes
   to config.php, and uploaded the new file to the site.
 * I get the same error msg. ” Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING
   in /f5/managingmoney/public/wp-config.php on line 73″
    Does this refer to line73(?)
   on config.php or to some other file that the code on this page calls?

 * When I type in [http://www.allaboutmanagingyourmoney.com](http://www.allaboutmanagingyourmoney.com)
   in the browser I get the same error message regarding install.php.
 * Can I give you password to that site thru email so you can take a look? ( I cannot
   post it on the forum). Then you can post the correction on this forum so that
   others may also benefit.

 * Sorry.
    The errors were in creating the database on nfs. Corrected, and now installation
   complete. Thanks for your time.
