Accroding to Mandrake's developers there are some problems running
Midgard on Mandrake. At least, they weren't successful in Midgard's
compilation and startup, but it seems that your problems lie in a
different field. If you can, please take current 1.2.5 tar-balls from
www.midgard-project.org as they were patched and reuploaded after
official release. Probably it solves your problems.

Most common source for this error is non-balanced '{' and '}' in PHP
scripts.
> I thought this quite odd, since the page displays almost in its entirety

> <? if ($article) { ?>
> <!-- Call the article style element created for this page that tells how

> &(article.content:h);
> <? } else {
^
Take into account this opening brace
> if ($topic) { ?>
> <? } ?>

That's spot! You forgot to add closing '}' brace.
