Your php version is to much up to date to run the old mccodes as the newer version which was released sometime ago not exactly sure but it wont work on that php version if you own the server that is hosting it you could always downgrade to lower php version or get the code updated it.

Edit: oh forgot you could also just try another host i believe php version 5.5.27 and below should be ok running old mysql

On the sly (apparently it's being sly about it), it's telling you to not use mysql_ because it's deprecated (and dropped) due to superior APIs and security concerns. http://stackoverflow.com/a/13944958

TL;dr Get a new engine or update McCodes to use PDO or MySQLi

You should when installing pick mysqli, as for on some servers they do not use mysql anymore. or you can go through all the files and change to PDO. no matter what though you're going to have to change the coding to PDO or mysqli.

Can't, it's lite.

But yes, you will have to change to mysqli/pdo for future versions of PHP at some point in time. What you can do is fix some of your error reporting so it doesn't display all of your errors:

error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_DEPRECATED);

But this disables all deprecated errors which isn't the best idea either. The best idea is what all has been mentioned above.

I did speak to you earlier this morning and I know you are trying to get back into programming a bit and when I mentioned the V1 (lite) mccodes, I failed to mention to you that these errors can show up and that is my bad and I am sorry. But thankfully, if you took my suggestions and installed the software I said, you should be able to roll back your PHP to previous versions. For you, preferably PHP < 5.5.0. In 5.4.* you will still see some deprecated error with ereg* but those are pretty easy to fix using preg*.

With th all that said, that should give you a taste of programming again and help you get back in the groove of things.
