I got the following error when install:
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/freehost/t35.com/u/c/ucway/moodle/config.php on line 67
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: get_string() in /home/freehost/t35.com/u/c/ucway/moodle/mod/resource/lib.php on line 10
Please advise how to fix it. My url is http://ucway.t35.com/moodle/
After I fix up the " & ; I got another error:
Warning: mysql_pconnect() [function.mysql-pconnect]: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) in /home/freehost/t35.com/u/c/ucway/moodle/lib/adodb/drivers/adodb-mysql.inc.php on line 175
The database details specified in config.php are not correct, or the database is down.
My setting as follows:

$CFG->dbhost = "localhost"; // eg localhost
$CFG->dbname = "moodledb"; // eg moodle
$CFG->dbuser = "username";
$CFG->dbpass = "password";

$CFG->wwwroot = "http://ucway.t35.com/moodle";
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// Next, specify the full OS directory path to this same location

anything need to change?
Hey Martin, you haven´t to eat your computer, it is a server prob!
2. simple things!
If you use SuseLinux the MYSQL_SOCKET is /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock and not tmp/mysql.sock!
And sql.safe_mode has to be off, otherwise you will not be able to declare a hostname, username or password. Then username is the current user id of PHP.
Here only the system admin can help!
Another thing, moodle use pconnect (persistent connections), this is a bad thing on shared servers! Better use connect!
Change in lib/adodb/drivers/adodb-mysql.inc.php
$this->_connectionID = mysql_pconnect to
$this->_connectionID = mysql_connect
and all your trouble is gone
André
