Configuration file error on new install (invalid characters)

[mistial-dev]

Just installed a new OIDPlus repository, following the instructions in the configuration.

I'm getting the following error:

OIDplus error
syntax error, unexpected floating-point number ".1", expecting ")"

Technical information about the problem:

ParseError
at file /var/www/oidplus/userdata/baseconfig/config.inc.php (line 6)

Stacktrace:
#0 /var/www/oidplus/includes/classes/OIDplus.class.php(867): OIDplus::baseConfig()
#1 /var/www/oidplus/index.php(28): OIDplus::init()
#2 {main}

The config file looks like this:

OIDplus::baseConfig()->setValue('CONFIG_VERSION',    2.1);

It looks like perhaps some unicode ended up in there. I copied and pasted directly into the file by terminal.

Cleaning up the file fixes the parsing issue.

This also led to an error about a missing plugin until the spaces were replaced.
