The localhost page isn’t working localhost is currently unable to handle this request. HTTP ERROR 500.

I noticed that other people where having a similar problem so I looked into the answers they received and the answer that worked for them was putting tail -n 20 /Applications/MAMP/logs/php_error.log into Terminal and the problem was a syntax error. Unfortunately my problem is not the same and am stuck now. The answer I received is: tail -n 20 /Applications/MAMP/logs/php_error.log [21-Mar-2017 03:37:02 Europe/Berlin] PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: [] operator not supported for strings in /Applications/MAMP/bin/phpLiteAdmin/phpliteadmin.php:572 Stack trace:

If someone can help me clear this out so I can continue the course it will surely be appreciated..
