 * I know this error has been discuses a few times but I searched all the topics
   and have not been able to solve the issue that I’m having when installing a plugin.
 * The error is:
 * Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/postalmg/public_html/*****/
   wp-content/plugins/booking/lib/wpdev-booking-functions.php on line 862
 * I’ve read a lot responses to this sort of parse error and some say that short_open_tag
   should be enabled in php.ini. Surprisingly it is enabled on my server but I still
   get this error.
 * This plugin is working fine on another server with WP 3.3.1 on the server that
   it doesn’t work on I tried with WP 3.3.1 as well as 3.4.1 to no avail.
 * Any help is appreciated.

 * Maybe I should also include this (wpdev-booking-functions.php)….

 * Try deactivating booking plugin.
 * If you can’t get into your admin dashboard, try deactivating plugins manually
   via FTP or phpMyAdmin.

 * No that is not the problem but thanks for your reply. I can access everything
   just fine but I cannot activate the plugin. When I try to activate it I get the
   parse error.
