Frustrated installing Vbulletin

[brianj]

Trying to install Vbulletin on my host and keep getting this error when it goes through install:

Warning: Unexpected character in input: '\' (ASCII=92) state=1 in /www/d/digitalsignage/htdocs/forum/includes/config.php on line 2

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in /www/d/digitalsignage/htdocs/forum/includes/config.php on line 2

I don't get where they are coming up with the error as here is my file:

<?php
$servername = '****@****.com';
$dbusername = '*******';
$dbpassword = '*********';
$dbname = 'digitalforum';
$technicalemail = '*****@*******.com';
$usepconnect = '0';
$admincpdir = 'admincp';
$modcpdir = 'modcp';
$canviewadminlog = '1';
$canpruneadminlog = '1';
$canrunqueries = '';
$undeletableusers = '';
$superadministrators = '';
$tableprefix = '';
$cookieprefix = 'bb';
?>

What am I doing wrong? Any help is greatly appreciated :)

You're not doing anything wrong. I'm not very familiar with Vbulletin, but this is apparently not an uncommon problem. Try a google on something like: Vbulletin unexpected character

You'll get a ton of results and several solutions.

why not trying to setup it on your own web server if you have a persistent conenction.
