Everything runs smoothly until I get to the step where Kickstart replaces the URL in the database. Then I get this error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '[' in /home/xxxxx/public_html/xxxxx/installation/platform/models/wordpressreplacedata.php on line 1024


Thanks,
Greg

Hello,

it seems that your new server is running PHP 5.3, which doesn't support the instruction you can find at that line.
We have changed the code in order to support PHP 5.3, too; in the meantime the only solution is to use PHP 5.4 or later.
