    I’m getting a parse error when opening /manage/index.php for the first time after successfully installing ModX.

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/hotdiggi/public_html/foodq/manager/includes/document.parser.class.inc.php on line 2173

    Any ideas?
      Mostly harmless.

          Only happens in Safari or all browsers, including IE Win?

            Safari, Firefox (Mac) and IE WIndows all give the same error...

              Try reuploading the document.parser.inc.php to the manager/includes folder - my first guess is that maybe the file got corrupted when it was being uploaded.

                Thanks. I deleted everything and reuploaded. Everything appears in working order now.
