# Parse error in wp-config

 * It seems I messed up my wp-config.php file and I cannot get it to work. When 
   going to my site I get:
 * > Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/content/32/5463532/html/
   > wp-config.php on line 1
 * I have tried adapting wp.config-sample.php and save it as wp-config.php, but 
   it doesn’t matter.
 * Would appreciate any help, as my site is currently down!

 * I managed to figure out the problem. i needed to download a new wp-config-sample.
   php (version 3.5.1) and edit it accordingly, save as wp-config.php and upload.
   It is now working correctly.
