Hello,

I didn't find another thread about this so I figured I should post it, after asking on IRC and nobody had encountered it.

We are using Ubuntu, with Apache 2.4 and PHP 5.5.x on our new server. The old server, was using Apache 2.2 and Mod PHP.

Upon migrating Limesurvey to our new server, the main screen will not load, and the administration interface gives an error.

To be clear, we also tried a fresh installation, and the above still happens.

This happens if it's in it's own directory, or, if it's in a sub directory on the server.

Ive tried with, and without the default limesurvey .htaccess file as well.

Here's what happens on the index page, followed by the admin page, then the server logs for reference;
