commonly this comes from malformed heredoc statements - you can have NO whitespace on the line of the opening heredoc decleration after the name of the heredoc and you can have NO whitespace on the closing line of the heredoc before the heredoc name. Make absoloutly certain that there are no tabs or spaces on these lines that shouldn't be.
