Call to undefined function phpsession_start()

Lex

Hello,
i'm have hosting for my site. I wanted to test a script for another site, so i created sub directory in the main directory. The script has install folder and index file in it.
The index file is this

<?phpsession_start();define("INSPATH","./");include(INSPATH."classes/Lib/Core/Assembler.php");new Lib_Core_Assembler();?>

When i try to install it, i get nothing (white screen) or the no such file or directory page from my main site. I looked at the error report and there is this

PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function phpsession_start() in /home//public_html//install/index.php on line 1
What is the problem?

this is not a function: phpsession_start()
this is: session_start()
add a word space after <?php

I already tried that, but again blank screen.

Whether the blank screen actually is a problem depends on what the script is supposed to be doing. You could test with:

<?php
session_start();
define("INSPATH","./");
include(INSPATH."classes/Lib/Core/Assembler.php");
new Lib_Core_Assembler();
echo 'Hello world!';

It would be simpler to set display_errors to on in php.ini.

This is installation file, which is supposed to start installing script. Its like forum installation.

I put the "Hello code" in, but again, nothing is happening. Its just like before.
Can it be, because of the ./ path? The script is not in the root of the domain, its in a folder, and the address to it is for examp. www.mydomain.com/script_for_installing/install/index.php
