OK. For Herr Morris then, starting at the top.
@nonko_web: Where did you get the WordPress upgrade from? You definitely don’t have the same version that I got from here. You’ve been compromised. Would suggest redoing the upgrade with fresh files from here at wordpress.org
Regarding @aba_ first post in thread: that’s not the answer. The file has bad content all around. (but it looks like you’ve got the answer later on in thread)
@lolyfe: Same question and advice as given to nonko_web.
@David_Z issue wasn’t upgrade since he was running older version.
@herr Morris: I think the wp of nonko_web was already hacked before, because 2.6.5 seems to contain the solution.

OK. Thanks. So how do I go about fixing this without loosing any information or layout?
I haven’t done the installation myself, it’s via an automatic thing at my host – but I do have FTP access with all rights…
@nonko_web.
maybe you have an older version – it seems to be 2.6.1 (i just had a look at the readme.html on your webserver).
I think I’m having the same issues…
http://www.travelingtribe.net 2.1.2 parse error
http://www.camelcrossing.net same parse error…upgraded to 2.6.5….still have the parse error
Any ideas????
@jackfussell
download and install 2.6.5 (http://wordpress.org/download/)
(www.camelcrossing.net seems to be 2.6.1 not 2.6.5 => http://www.camelcrossing.net/readme.html)
I have now installed a 2.6.1 at another url, and I will upgrade that, and then move it to the old blogg..
BUT my problem is that I can’t import the XML file of all my bloggposts into the new blogg (it says max a 2MB, but my XML file is 11MB of my post (i checked). I tried to import it, but when the file is “uploaded” I get asked:
“Are you sure you want to do this?
Please try again.”
??
@handysolo
I used the Automatic Upgrade plugin to upgrade to 2.6.5
I’ve got my hosts looking at this too, they can’t figure out why all my permissions have gone awry. Even if you change the permissions you can’t edit or delete the files.
i upgraded http://www.camelcrossing.net to 2.6.5 and have the same error
@jackfussel.
your readme (http://www.camelcrossing.net/readme.html) says, its not 2.6.5, its 2.6.1…?
@lolyfe – in looking at the code in the hacked file, I notice it mucks about with permissions. Presumably, your host will be able to get those squared away.
@aba_ – I don’t think we can rely on the readme.html to tell the version. It doesn’t appear to have been updated with the release.
i know…i just “upgraded” on bluehost and yet nothing is changing
bluehost acknowledges an issue with wp and will shut down allinfected sites in a week
@jackfussel – are you able to delete the bad wp-blog-header.php file? If so, delete it from your site and re-upload it from the zip you got from here.
@handysolo
you are right, sorry.
