Problem installing SMF latest version 2.0.14

I'm using Linode for my webhost. CentOS 6.5 and I'm experiencing trouble during the installation.

After uploading the zip file to my host in the proper mydomain.tld/Forum/ dir, I visited the URL for the forum in my web browser(Firefox).  The installer redirected the URL to the /Forum/install.php like it's supposed to. The first thing the installation did was tell me to fix permissions on certain files/directories which I'm experienced enough to do, no problems.  8) Then the installer asked me for my Database information which I'm experienced enough to provide as well. Then once I click the button to continue after entering in my database information, It takes me to the following URL, mydomain.tld/Forum/install.php?step=2 and just sits there with no output at all and a blank white screen..

Can anyone help me get past this particular installation problem? 8)

I thought I would add the following line to install.php file near the top.


ini_set("display_errors", "On");


After submitting the database information, I now receive the following error after I click on the button to continue.

Fatal error: Function name must be a string in /var/www/mydomain.tld/public_html/Forum/install.php on line 843

Make sure your PHP version is at least 5.4 you can ask your host to upgrade if it is not.
