Imagick error.

"Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ',', expecting '(' in /mnt/glusterfs/web/m/i/michalrusina.sk/sub/gallery/zp-core/lib-Imagick.php on line 79"

can anyone tell me what can cause this? the latest zp with mysql 5.0.90 & php 4.4.9 started to do this, tried to reinstal, but it happens also. is there a possibility that imagick is not installed and zp cant handle this? (they did some setup changes on hosting maybe)

Well, first you should switch to PHP 5. Although Zenphoto 1.3 might run under PHP 4.4.9 we don't test that anymore.
Imagick itself requires PHP 5 explicitly but causing this error was an oversite in 1.3 and is fixed in the nightly build (if I recall correctly).

i had thee xact same problem tried the nightly build last night and now get this error

OK, I had this exact same error when I upgraded from 1.2.6 to 1.3.1 on a site hosted on 1and1. The solution for me was to add the following two lines to the .htaccess file.

AddType xmapp-php5 .php
AddHandler x-mapp-php5 .php

Add them right at the top of the file, (just below the section with the # hashes).

Good luck

At which level did you update the .htaccess file? in the subdirectory with ZenPhoto, or at the site level?

Some servers don't report information correctly about which PHP version is actually in use. That's why Imagick fails; it requires PHP5. If your host gives you the option to switch to PHP5 (which it most likely will if you're seeing this problem), then I would suggest to do so. There's nothing we can do to prevent against this kind of issue.

I would assume that mgilpat629's suggestion does just that: forces PHP files to use PHP5. I would assume that this is put in Zenphoto's `.htaccess`. The best way to know is to try it.
