Catching an error with Symfony 3, php 7.1.2 just after installation:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '[', expecting ')' in Z:\home\symf.loc\www\try01\app\autoload.php on line 9

The file autoload.php:

<?php

use Doctrine\Common\Annotations\AnnotationRegistry;
use Composer\Autoload\ClassLoader;

/** @var ClassLoader $loader */
$loader = require __DIR__.'/../vendor/autoload.php';

AnnotationRegistry::registerLoader([$loader, 'loadClass']);

return $loader;

Any ideas what to do ?

Are you sure that you've run the project with PHP 7? Did you run the built-in server or did you use another webserver? – KhorneHoly Mar 03 '17 at 09:43

What is your php version ? You need at least PHP 5.4.0 – Chuck Norris Mar 03 '17 at 09:44
PHP version is not PHP7, run `php -v` – COil Mar 03 '17 at 09:45
Create a file in your doc root that contains `` and open it in your browser to check the php-version. You can actually have different versions in CLI and on the web server. – M. Eriksson Mar 03 '17 at 09:47
