Installation

Server Requirements

The Laravel framework has a few system requirements. Of course, all of these requirements are satisfied by the Laravel Homestead virtual machine:

PHP >= 5.5.9 OpenSSL PHP Extension Mbstring PHP Extension Tokenizer PHP Extension

I see. Thanks, was this changed recently as I had no problems beforehand when making a new Laravel project.

Yep, it was changed 12 days ago, see https://github.com/laravel/framework/commit/8349040e7381d083868fa40bd7dcaf301f0347e3

It's same problem on PHP V5.6.15

PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CLASS, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or '$' in /opt/lampp/htdocs/laravel_demo/artisan on line 31

I have same problem, check your php version run on shell. In my case the phpinfo shows me 7.0.7 and in my shell runs 5.3.10.... Update php version and i belive it works.

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected 'class' (T_CLASS), expecting identifier (T_STRING) or variable (T_VARIABLE) or '{' or '$' in /home/mydomain/public/index.php on line 50

Hi.I have the same problem. My local copy runs good but the copy uploaded into the server shows this error just a few months after it has been running good. We contacted the server administrator and they said they have made clearing actions last week and I don't have any idea what have they done even my employer. Is it the sever who made this to happen (did they upgrade their PHP version because the system runs well previously) or is the system affected after their clearing? Please help me. I have no idea how and what to say to my employer. What will I ask to the system administrator about this problem.
