Markdown breaks entire blog

[Jigger]

Hi,

I was just updating some of the plugins over Spartacus und after updating Markdown it showed following warning:

> Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '/', expecting T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING or '(' in /mnt/web1/c0/36/52436036/htdocs/Serendipity/plugins/serendipity_event_markdown/serendipity_event_markdown.php on line 3

How do I solve this issue?

Cheers

Hmm, do you have at least PHP >= 5.3.0 ?
Normally Spartacus should only advise this update to you as upgradeable, if PHP is equal or of higher version.
This is a use namespace line. We should find out why this doesn't work in your case.
Please check PHP Version, general Server environment, etc to get an idea why you have this issue.

The php version was 5.2, so I am guessing that's were the error came from. I changed the setting to 5.3 (strato).
However, now it's just a blank page frontend as well as backend.

Edit:
Okay, now it works!

Guess I was just to impatient. Thank you for your help!

Glad you solved that.
So I guess you did not mean upgraded by "automated Spartacus online", than "manually via spartacus.s9y.org", right?
