Syntax Error with php 5.4

[floplus]

Hi,

despite of saying that it requires PHP 5.3 it does not work with PHP 5.4, PHP 5.5 is okay.
Perhaps this should be updated in the Readme and on the website. Or is there a version that does still work with PHP 5.4/5.3?

$ php -v
PHP 5.4.36 (cli) (built: Dec 20 2014 14:09:43)

$ php cachetool.phar opcache:status
PHP Parse error:  syntax error, unexpected '{' in phar:///var/www/cachetool.phar/vendor/symfony/dependency-injection/Container.php on line 280

Maybe this is cause https://github.com/gordalina/cachetool/blob/master/composer.json#L6

finally may be not part of your PHP version:
https://github.com/symfony/dependency-injection/blob/4b9645f5870e0b4ab35cc5b528422049946e8bec/Container.php#L280

symfony/dependency-injection is also for >=5.5.9

You may try issuing composer install, hacking a bit with the code and rebuilding the phar.

I've got the same problem using php:

PHP 7.0.14 (cli) (built: Dec 22 2016 14:17:52) ( NTS )
Copyright (c) 1997-2016 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v3.0.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2016 Zend Technologies

and downloading the cachetool-binary from github like mentioned in the docs.

[root@server]# /usr/local/bin/cachetool opcache:reset
PHP Parse error:  syntax error, unexpected '{' in phar:///usr/local/bin/cachetool/vendor/symfony/dependency-injection/Container.php on line 280

@rndmh3ro Looks like an unrelated issue. I would open a new issue for that.

To use with php5.4 you need to use cachetool 1.x
