When I upload the new shop, then go to the website to look at it, I get the following error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting ']' in /homepages/38/d97062229/htdocs/friends/shop/ccdata/data/data.php on line 172

What's wrong?

Thanks!

What is the URL to your shop Sharon?

www.islandparks.org/shop

There are 2 possibilities:

1. Your server does not meet the minimum requirements:
http://www.islandparks.org/shop/ccdata/ … ertest.php

2. The upload is just corrupt. You could try deleting the shop folder and then re-upload again and see if that helps.

OK, tried deleting the contents of the Shop folder and re-uploading. Same problem. The test script runs by so fast that the only way I could capture it was to print it before it crashes. THe script runs fine til it reaches the "Connectivity with PayPal" line. Then it trips over to the error msg I sent earlier.
I cut and pasted the script that I printed below. Does anything jump out?

What I would suggest is have 1&1 upgrade your PHP to 5.2 or higher and see if that helps. I think you can even do that yourself through your hosting control panel.

Upgraded PHP to 5 (1&1 control panel lets you ;pick just "4" or "5" without .rev options). Same problem.

Just scrolled thru the upload script. The only error is one of the firts lines of the script and says"

"an error while uploading ftp://ftp.islandparks.org//Program Files (x86)/COffee Cup Software/Shopping Cart Creator Pro/mypassword@ftp.islandparks.org:21"

I replaced my actual password in the above string with "mypassword".

Any further advice. This is SO frustrating!

Are you publishing with the software or uploading manually? When I go to http://www.islandparks.org/shop/ccdata/ … ertest.php it immediately goes to an error for me.

Publishing right thru the Shopping Cart software.

I would suggest opening support ticket Sharon. We are going to need a lot more information. Please send us a zip file of your entire shop and if you don't mind, FTP access and we will see what we can do for you. We close in 3 hours for the holiday, so if you hurry, we can look into it today.
