[PHPBB] Error on forum, problem with header files

hi there,

There seems to be some problem with my forum running PHPBB.
It all happened 3-4 days back, while editing overall_header file from the ACP.
There are error 2 types of error on the site.
First is related to cache files... onces that file is deleted from the server .. there is another error

Below are the error.

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/bizzu0/public_html/forum4finance/discuss/cache/tpl_prosilver-se_overall_header.html.php on line 201

Code (markup):

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/bizzu0/public_html/forum4finance/discuss/includes/template.php(614) : eval()'d code on line 201

Code (markup):

 

Can you show us the code? It's most likely a 3 seconds fix.

 

Editing the files through the CP can cause problems, you should use notepad ++ instead as ive learned this error myself.

Sometimes it changed your ' ; : etc slightly making the code not work. If you can revert and do the same changes in notepad ++ and then use a FTP prog like filezilla you shouldnt have any probs

 

Thanks guys for the replies.
The problem is solved. The support system at PHPBB forum is great.

And yes changing files through ACP is a pain.. I am using Dreamweaver now, and uploading using fireftp..

 

Ok good to know, but you should use Notepad++, it's much better then dreamweaver, IMO.
