Error during the installation of codeigniter - El Forum - 09-23-2013

[eluser]Unknown[/eluser]
Hello,
I am having a problem installing codeigniter. I'm using PHPtriad. After extracting the codeigniter files to the htdocs folder and loading codeigniter in the browser, I encounter following error message:

Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_OLD_FUNCTION' or `T_FUNCTION' or `T_VAR' or `'}'' in c:\apache\htdocs\codeigniter\system\core\Config.php on line 294

Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: ci_config in c:\apache\htdocs\codeigniter\system\core\Common.php on line 174


I have not changed any settings. Is it compulsory to do so? I read somewhere in the help or readme file that I
MAY change the settings if I want, but it did not say that's compulsory.
Thanks.
