Hi,

I have just installed version 2.4.0 on a GoDaddy Ultimate plan. I’ve copied the install files several times now in case the install issue is a corrupt file. Modified the file permissions as instructed in the users guide. Yet I get the following error:

Your config file does not appear to be formatted correctly.

any ideas what I can do about this ?

Fairly urgent I need to get this site going, I’ve installed version 2.0 a few months ago without any issues on another isp.

Hello IT Buff,

I am sorry to hear you are running into this problem. I know this can be very frustrating.

Did the install complete successfully?

Did you remove the install folder?

I believe GoDaddy may need a slight configuration change.

Can you try this for me?

In your config.php file please change the following.

$config['uri_protocol']    = "AUTO";

to

$config['uri_protocol']    = "QUERY_STRING";

Let me know how things go.

Cheers!

Is this config.php file supposed to be empty straight out of the zip pre-install?
Because it currently is when I DL from “My Downloads” and I tried downloading it twice.

Cheers,
Dan

Hey iDVB,

Yes, that is correct. The file is blank to start with.

Cheers,
