I am in the middle of migrating a Wiki database from WOS (www.chsoftware.net) to XAMPP (http://www.apachefriends.org) version 1.8.1.
I have successfully installed XAMPP on my notebook, but I receive the following error when I enter http://localhost/mediawiki/index.php/Main_Page into my web brower's address box:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '::' (T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM), expecting \\ (T_NS_SEPARATOR) in C:\xampp\htdocs\mediawiki\includes\Title.php on line 640
I'm not familiar with .php file code syntax, but it looks like an incompatibility between WOS' scripting language and XAMPP's.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks for any suggestions you may have to offer.
