Hello All,

I am sure this is simple, but I really cant figure it out by myself.. at
least not tonight :)

This simple script gives : Parse error:  parse error in
/var/www/html/test.php on line 2
# cat /var/www/html/test.php
<?php
$user = "root" ;
echo "hello $user";
?>

If I comment (//) line 2, it works and the hello shows up.
If I replace the double quotes with single quotes, it gives the same
parse error.

I already tried overwritng my php.ini with the original one and also
tried reinstalling the mod_php rpm.

Thanks a lot for any hints.
