I got the following error when I generated my project using the new 3.1 beta: Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in /home/ccdem2/public_html/new/libs/Smarty.class.php on line 75
Yep, I had exactly the same problem. Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in .../phprunner/linguistsadmin/libs/Smarty.class.php on line 75 I tried converting two projects from version 3, rebuilding and uploading and in both cases got the same error message.
I then tried creating a new project in the beta version but had the same error message again.
