Using this famous password library gives me an error on live server. Why's that?

I am using this https://github.com/ircmaxell/password_compat

 

I have no problem using it on a local server. But as soon as I test it on a live server, it gives me an error like this. 

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '{' in /home/public_html/sub/snippets/password.php on line 19

The error is on the same line as the beginning of the code in that library. 

 

Why is this happening?

So what is line 19 in your password.php script? There's no opening brace on line 19 in any of the official versions.

 

Is it “namespace {”? Then you're appearently running an ancient, long-abandoned PHP version (something prior to 5.3).

 

Yes it's the “namespace {”.

 

And yes you're correct. The server was running older PHP version.  I switched it to PHP 5.4 and i no longer get that error.

 

Thanks for clearing it up.
