    Default Cannot access /admin/ after new install.

    I just installed Zencart 1.5.4 for the first time in my life. It looks like it installed correctly, but when I try to access the /admin/ area I just get a blank white page. I looked at the most recent log file and see this:

    Code:
    [13-Jul-2015 17:53:47] PHP Parse error:  syntax error, unexpected T_STATIC in /home4/USER/public_html/admin/includes/classes/class.admin.zcObserverLogEventListener.php on line 118
    The only thing I can think of is that maybe I am running the wrong version of PHP, but it seems like it would have told me that during setup. Does anyone have any insight on this issue?

    What is the PHP version on your server?

    Thought so.

    But as DrByte says in that thread:

    The BEST fix is to upgrade your PHP version to 5.4 or 5.5.
    If you're using a hosting company which uses cPanel to manage your sites, such as Hostgator or Bluehost or Hostmonster etc, you can change PHP versions by logging in to cPanel, choosing the "PHP Configuration" icon, and choosing a newer version of PHP from the dropdown menu there.
    Consult your hosting company for any assistance you need in changing PHP versions.

    PHP 5.6 is the current version. Everything else is old!
