PHP message: PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '*', expecting ',' or ';' in Settings.php on line 150

gboudreau commented 7 years ago

What version of PHP are you using? What if you replace line 150 of Settings.php:

static public $cache_max_age = 14*24*60*60;

with this:

static public $cache_max_age = 1209600;

Looks like PHP 5.6 is required for static expressions, which you don't have.

I would strongly advise to update your PHP version, as anything lower than 5.6 is not supported anymore by PHP, meaning you will not get security patches.

But in all cases, making the change I suggested above will fix your problem.

$ php --version PHP 5.6.29-0+deb8u1 (cli) (built: Dec 13 2016 16:02:08) Copyright (c) 1997-2016 The PHP Group Zend Engine v2.6.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2016 Zend Technologies with Zend OPcache v7.0.6-dev, Copyright (c) 1999-2016, by Zend Technologies

If I replace static public $cache_max_age = 14*24*60*60; by your suggestion, it works.
