Error on running install.php

  • I am getting this error message
    Warning: Unexpected character in input: ‘ in /home/greencon/public_html/wordpress/wp-includes/functions-formatting.php on line 295
    I am not sure what is wrong. I have installed it on my hard disk and checked when everything seemed to be fine.

  • Whichever file the error is being reported in, delete that one from the server and reupload it.
    It could be a fault on the upload process.

    I tried that Podz, but it did not work. I told myself, if Podz can’t bail me out, what on earth am I gonna do. ??
    So, I kept uploading and installing over and over again. I tried all possible permutations and combinations. It didn’t work. I tried it uploading on a different server; it still did not work. I deleted and created databases and users over and over again on this server and that. It still wouldn’t work. :O
    My last resort was to try a different FTP client. And guess what? It worked! There apparently something was wrong with WS FTP. The uploading was fine with Cute FTP. I wonder why. The Auto Detect function of WS FTP seems to have a bug.
    Cheers!
