What version of vbulletin? And what version of php?

You say New Install... so no mods, all totally default files? Try redownloading the files and then reupload a totally default set with the only file you ever touch being the config.php file using a plain text editor.

hi lynne i tried VB verison 3-7-0 new host new forum only touched the config.php file

oh sorry this was the 3rd attempt at clean download and upload each time i get same proble

New host? Like I asked, what version of php? I'll bet your version of vbulletin isn't compatible with the version of php you are using.

PHP Version 5.2.14 that the problem?

[Lynne]

That should be fine with 3.7.3.

As I asked before - this is a totally default new install? Not some upgrade or install with an old database or old files at all?

Those look like the same errors I had in a ticket this morning where the person upgraded to php 5.3 and was still using version 3.8.3.

[stephen1976]

yep brand new host , new database, never had one on this ever before, fresh download of VB and fresh install.

no updates, upgrades, or anything

Put a file in your root directory named phpinfo.php that has only these contents:
<?
phpinfo();
?>
and post a link here for us to see.

Um.... you need to edit/create php files using a text editor, nothing fancier, or you will get garbage in your code.
