[Mediawiki-l] Installation question

[B. M. Whealton]

Hello all,
       Recently I tried to install media wiki on my server.  I have php 
5.2.12  I wasn't sure if I needed 5.3.1 as a minimum or if there was an 
earlier version that worked with php 5.2.x  I got this error when I 
browsed to the folder after uploading the software:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION 
or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in 
/home2/words/public_html/wordopedia/install-utils.inc on line 118
I put it in a folder that I renamed wordopedia.
Any ideas?
Bruce
