500 server error as soon as the namespace part of the docusign PHP SDK example is reached

I get a 500 server error when running the docusign php sdk example code.

I've ensured that I am using a PHP version above the required version. I am using PHP v 5.3.5, and the required version is 5.3.3. I have also ensured that curl and json are enabled. I have cut the example code listed on the github down to just these few lines, and still get the error. When I comment out the part that uses name spacing, the error stops occurring.

<?
    require_once( 'includes/docusign-php-client-master/autoload.php' );

    class DocuSign {

        private $config;

        public function __construct( $email, $password, $integratorKey ) {
            // error happens on next line
            $this->config = new DocuSign\eSign\Configuration();
        }
    }

    $docusign = new DocuSign( $myemail, $mypassword, $myintegrationkey );
?>

I have replaced my actual email, pass, and key with variables. Any ideas as to why I am getting the error?

It turns out the required PHP version listed on the SDK is wrong. The SDK uses the array creation shorthand [], which requires PHP version 5.4 or higher.

In my experience, error 500 will often happen if newly uploaded files don't have the appropriate permissions on the server. Apply appropriate chmod permissions from the bash console (or FTP server) to allow Apache to read the files.
