XF 1.3 MYSQL errors

[Roadwart]

Got a message from one of my forum members today to say theres some strange code showing instead of the forum. Logged in & sure enough it was showing some errors. I know next to nothing about MYSQL but the forum was working fine last night when I did my bot check & log empty. I thought it was about time to upgrade to 1.3.3 from 1.2.2 (I know I should have done it sooner) thinking the upgrade would overwrite any files that were causing problems but when I go to complete the install process, after I go to the install directory & enter my log in details I get the code below showing instead of completing the install.

Server Error

Can anyone shed any light on this?

We have had numerous reports of this today.

Your host has made a change which needs to be rolled back or you need to choose the PHP 5.5 option in your control panel.

OK thanks Brogan. I`ll have a look at the hosting

Yet again Brogan comes through with the goods. Changed setting to PHP 5.5 & alls well again.
