Topic: Installation Error

[stanhills11]

Hi there,

I am having the same issue as mentioned in the following topic:
https://mibew.org/forums/index.php?topic=191681.0

But in my case, I think the problem is not with the php version. Here are the server details:

Apache version: 2.2.29
PHP version: 5.4.38
MySQL version: 5.5.42-37.1

Any help would be really appreciated.

You're wrong. The thread you've pointed is about:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING or '(' in /<some path>/mibew/install.php on line 25

error. And the only reason of such errors is an outdated PHP (< 5.3).

So either you have another error (check apache's error logs) or you are wrong about installed PHP version.

This the error I'm facing.

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING or '(' in /<some path>/Mibew/install.php on line 25

and attached is the screen shot from the cpanel

I don't believe that PHP 5.4.38 is used to serve Mibew requests.

Place a file named "info.php" with the following content

Code: [Select]

<?php

phpinfo();


into Mibew root directory, request "http://<Mibew base URL>/info.php" and provide the output here.

Thank you for the help. Actually the problem was with the hosting provider, now they updated the php version. So, I'm going to install it right now.

I've told you that you did use an outdated PHP 

Nevertheless, it's nice to hear that the problem is solved.

I've moved you question to https://mibew.org/forums/index.php/topic,191838.0.html because it's about another problem.
