I am receiving the following error with a fresh D7 install using the latest build:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '{' in /homepages/38/d97894505/htdocs/anthemz/includes/bootstrap.inc on line 669

I tried to reproduce it and I couldn't. Are you still getting the error?

That's a try/catch on that line. I suspect you are still using PHP 4. That's not supported anymore.

Title: Installation error » try/catch in bootstrap.inc leads to fatal error with PHP 4 in installer
Status: Closed (won't fix) » Active

However, dying with an fatal error is not so nice, so maybe we can avoid that. I doubt it, though...

Yes. Apache was defaulting to PHP 4. I'll try with PHP 5 and follow-up.
