I need to change my Symfony2 website to a new server and I've noticed that the new server is currently installed php 5.4, when Symfony2 need a minimum of 5.5.9. By doing some tests they are taking place some errors like:
php.CRITICAL: Fatal Parse Error: syntax error, unexpected 'class' (T_CLASS), expecting identifier (T_STRING) {"type":4,"file":"/home/admin/web/websitename.com/app/vendor/doctrine/common/lib/Doctrine/Common/Proxy/ProxyGenerator.php","line":62,"level":6143,"stack":[]} []
which is probably product of the version. I wonder if anyone has had this problem and has installed a Symfony2 in php 5.4, maybe down to an older version of the framework. I know that the easy way it would be to update the version of php but currently that's not an option.
Thanks in advance
Since the problem seems to be in doctrine common bundle I try with some old version of it, looking for some one compatible with php 5.4, specifically someone when the function::class is not used. Finally it work with the next combination:
"doctrine/common": "2.4.2",
"doctrine/dbal": "2.4.4",
"doctrine/orm": "2.4.7",
"doctrine/doctrine-bundle": "~1.2"
Update composer and done.
