Problems migrating from WAMP to live server

edited January 2016 in Installation
I have begun the (arduous) process of migrating my local FUEL project to a live server. I am first uploading to a subdirectory of the domin as a development version, then I will move to the main directory after.

Immediately, I get two errors:
Notice: Undefined index: SCRIPT_FILENAME in d:\inetpub\zdlaw\zdlaw_fuel\fuel\modules\fuel\config\fuel_constants.php on line 20 Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_OLD_FUNCTION' or `T_FUNCTION' or `T_VAR' or `'}'' in d:\inetpub\zdlaw\zdlaw_fuel\fuel\modules\fuel\core\MY_Hooks.php on line 41

I know a number of issues could be to blame.

I checked my application/config/config.php and I changed my base_url():
$config['base_url'] = 'http://zdlaw.com/zdlaw_fuel';

I also made sure the database settings were updated for the live version.

Then I checked the .htaccess and changed all of the index.php's to index.php? with the question mark.

I'm wondering what might be causing this issue? I have a sneaking suspicion that it's something to do with the .htaccess or the server configuration that my client's host has. But how can I be sure? I checked phpinfo() and could not find mod_rewrite there, but I'm not getting a 500 error or anything. Any other things I should look into regarding FUEL's configuration?

(I remember when I used GoCart, the CMS created a MANIFEST.php of all routes used by the CMS, which linked to local filepaths. Does FUEL do something similar that I should delete?)

Thanks!

    What version of PHP is the server running? FuelCMS requires at least v5.2.

    Also, it sounds like the server may not be providing a $_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME'] variable. You can try defining one in the index.php bootstrap which would be the server path to the index.php CI bootstrap found in the root of the FUEL installation folder.

    Figured it out!
    Turns out, my client's server was running PHP 4....
