Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '$config' (T_VARIABLE) in application/config/config.php on line 382

[DpoBoceka]

the problem occures after GETting the index.php page. The line contains:

$config['sess_driver'] = 'database';

Database's up. Table 'ci_session' exists. What's incorrect?

You likely didn't update this line in the configuration. Set the encryption key (I believe you can use any string) and add a semi colon to the end. The issue you're getting is syntax and not related to L382 at all.

$config['encryption_key'] = ''

@hoboken515 is right, there was a semicolon missing in the CI config file. I will fix it in the next commit. Meanwhile, remember to setup a strong encryption key https://www.codeigniter.com/user_guide/libraries/encryption.html#setting-your-encryption-key
