Why can't I upgrade?

[theologyonline]

I have followed the instructions very closely.

I am upgrading from vBulletin 2.0 BETA 3 to vBulltein 2.0 BETA 5.

When I attempt to run the first upgrade script (upgrade4.php) I get the following error...

Parse error: parse error in ./functions.php on line 1

Why?

Help!

Reupload functions.php in ASCII.

Uhhhggggg..... (why did I try and upgrade????)

I re-uploaded in ASCII but I still get the same error.

Any other ideas???

Is it to late to go back????

I re-uploaded my old stuff.

I will wait to upgrade until I can get some more feedback on what went wrong!

AHA!!!!

When downloading the software from the vBulletin site on a Mac using Explorer the file became corupt. I realized this when I notcied that the file had a different name when downloaded from a Mac or when downloaded on a PC.

On a Mac the downloaded file was called "download.php"

Yet when downloaded on a PC the file was correctly called "vbulletin2.zip"

After re-downloading the file on a PC and re-uploading as instructed everything worked perfectly!
