This question may be related to a resolved thread.
Upon uploading a new, blank copy of EE 2.1.3, pointing my browser to the system directory I get a blank screen in place of a setup wizard.
In debug mode I get:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or ‘}’ in /homepages/14/d187216665/htdocs/2011/LGP/installer/core/Installer_Config.php on line 45
