Fatal Error on Install with Media Temple Hosting

    I'm moving my hosted sites from GoDaddy to Media Temple and just got this error when I tried to install Gravity Forms. I couldn't find anything in the forums to answer this problem - any ideas?

    This is the message I got:

    Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in /nfs/c07/h02/mnt/101995/domains/mydomain.com/html/wp-content/plugins/gravityforms/gravityforms.php on line 53

  2. This is covered in the FAQ here:

    http://www.gravityhelp.com/frequently-asked-questions/#faq_installation

    It is a PHP version error. Gravity Forms requires PHP 5. You need to turn PHP 5 on for your MediaTemple account in the hosting control panel.
