What is your php version?

Looks like an error in your editing of the config file though.

If this is a new install of a fresh forum you can keep the line

$config['Database']['tableprefix'] = '';

Exactly how it is.

The error is probably on the last line of PHP code (not a comment) above this line.

Probably the line:

$config['Database']['dbname'] = 'forum';

Did you edit the 'forum' part? make sure single quotes around whatever database name you used and that it ends with a semi-colon ( ; ).
