Not able to install

Post by roborls »

When I download 280 rc2 and try to install it on my server I get:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING or '(' in /home/pio1/public_html/phpfaq/280/install/setup.php on line 33

I am probably doing something wrong... but I have no clue where to look

Hello,
I have the same issue and guess it is due to my php version 5.2.17
However I can not find a 5.2.3 version for windows.
Do you have an older version to have phpmyfaq running on php 5.2.17 ?

Thanks for you reply and great job.
Bob

Hi Bob,

phpmyfaq 2.8 now requires php 5.3, it will not install with php 5.2

Will it run on php 5.2, if I do a manual install??
Is there previous version of phpmyadmin that will run on php 5.2?

Hi,

the current stable version 2.7.9 supports PHP 5.2.

Note: PHP 5.2 iiself is out of support.

PHP version is the issue; well that was a simple fix. I'll give that a try.
