I setup ZF2 on a shared server. It works perfectly on the localhost, though on the shared server I get this error:
Warning: Unexpected character in input: '\' (ASCII=92) state=1 in /home/content/82/5123082/html/tmp/ZendSkeletonApplication/public/index.php on line 12
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/content/82/5123082/html/tmp/ZendSkeletonApplication/public/index.php on line 12

PHP 5.3.13 (cli) (built: May 14 2012 16:26
The Linux server that is used is:
Linux …secureserver.net … #1 SMP Fri Jul 15 08:15:44 EDT 2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
CentOS release 5.5 (Final)

Apparently, the server was running PHP 5.3 in the SSH console, however the Apache server was still using PHP 5.2, therefor unable to use namespaces.
So, even though the account was setup for “PHP 5.3”, the .htaccess needs to be changed in order to support that.
In order to fix the problem, add the following line to the .htaccess file in the /public/ folder:
