After VPS upgrade I have a problem, help

Hello all,

Last night I had had my shared server upgraded to VPS. After
the upgrade was completed I receive the follwoing error
message entering the main page of my MediaWiki install:

Parse error:  parse error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting
T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in
/home/conserv8/public_html/includes/Exception.php on line
139

Does anyone know what could be causing this error?

My old shared server had PHP5 and my VPS has PHP4 if this
makes a difference...

Thanks a million!

What version of MediaWiki are you running? PHP 4 has not
been
supported since the 1.6 branch.

Yes, it is exactly that, I remember I got messages referring
to
Exception.php and was told it was because I didn't have PHP
5

Yes, it does. You are running MediaWiki 1.7.0 or later,
which requires PHP 5.
