Installation Issues

27 Jan 2018, 20:53

Tried using the c3_installer.php. Got an error (forgot what it was). So, I just downloaded the zip file, unzipped it and uploaded it to the online directory, also named x3. When I tried to start it, I got: 
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM in /home/content/97/4314097/html/x3/app/stacey.inc.php on line 17

Any idea what to do to get it running?

Hi Bob,

This is because you have an old PHP version 5.2 or lower, while X3 requires PHP 5.3 or higher (preferably PHP 7). Does your hosting have a cPanel (control panel)? You should be able to login and find some PHP settings which allow you to upgrade PHP VERSION. Your hosting needs to offer newer PHP version if they are professional! PHP 5.2 was released in 2006, an discontinued in 2011.

Outdated PHP version would explain why you are having problems with the installer also.
