One of my clients older websites is now displaying this error. Any help in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

Fatal error: The file /home/XXXXXX/public_html/admin/cms.php was encoded by the ionCube Encoder for PHP 4 and cannot run under PHP 5.5. Please ask the provider of the script to provide a version encoded with the ionCube Encoder for either PHP 5.3 or PHP 5.4 or PHP 5.5. in Unknown on line 0

I'm assuming the host has upgraded the PHP version. Do I need to fix this with Couch or on the host side?

hi Mark, I recently had an issue with upgrades to PHP 5.5 - at 1and1.co.uk. I ended up upgrading the sites to Couch 1.4 and it was a straightforward procedure - earlier versions of Couch didn't seem to be compatible with PHP 5.5

Thanks. I upgraded and it fixed the issue.
