While i was updating one of my server website how is running Joomla 1.0 i change the server from a Windows to a Unix server system.

• Very important YOU HAVE TO BACK UP ALL YOUR FILES AND THE DATABASE

When i receive the new login, i uploaded all my files but i had this error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘{’ in /web/htdocs/MYWEBSITE/home/configuration.php on line 1

To solve this problem you just have to:

1. Delete from the server the “configuration.php” files
2. Download the full package the last Joomla 1.0 version () i found that here: http://joomlacode.org/gf/project/joomla/frs/?action=FrsReleaseView&release_id=6828
3. Of course extract the dir
4. Upload on the server the “configuration.php-dist” file and the “installation” directory
5. Refresh the browser, and start the installation
6. Before the installation start go to your mysql manager and (JUST AFTER BACKUP IT) delete the old table
7. Procede with the istallation.. (host, user, pass, db name…)
8. When the website is running again (and you delete the installation directory) back to your mysql admin and delete the new database and import the old one..

Done..
