Fatal error: Uncaught Error: [] operator not supported for strings

[giwrgos88]

I tried to install for testing purposes an existing prestashop project on laravel's forge which is having ngix and mariadb. I've uploaded all my php files inside the public folder but when I'm trying to load the page I'm getting the following error message

 

 

 

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: [] operator not supported for strings in /home/forge/testing.com/public/classes/db/DbQuery.php:96 Stack trace: #0 /home/forge/testing.com/public/Adapter/Adapter_EntityMapper.php(45): DbQueryCore->from('shop', 'a') #1 /home/forge/testing.com/public/classes/ObjectModel.php(233): Adapter_EntityMapper->load('1', NULL, Object(Shop), Array, NULL, true) #2 /home/forge/testing.com/public/classes/shop/Shop.php(131): ObjectModelCore->__construct('1', NULL, NULL) #3 /home/forge/testing.com/public/classes/shop/Shop.php(400): ShopCore->__construct('1') #4 /home/forge/testing.com/public/config/config.inc.php(114): ShopCore::initialize() #5 /home/forge/testing.com/public/index.php(27): require('/home/forge/tes...') #6 {main} thrown in /home/forge/testing.com/public/classes/db/DbQuery.php on line 96

Does anyone know how I can fix this issue? I'm using prestashop 1.6.1.4

As of this moment PrestaShop is not compatible with PHP 7.1

Yes i know but 7.1 is backward compatibility which means that is compatibly with 7 and according to changelog my prestashop version supports 7
