PHP version- disparity between server info. & CMSMS info

[burlington]

Clean install of Version 1.12. Server information states that PHP version is 5.5.31. CMSMS install program system info. in 'Required settings' says it is 5.2.17.

Attempted installs 'hang' on 'Installing modules'. Trying to go in to 'admin' after waiting some time for module installs, gets the standard message:

'Oops!
Sorry, it looks like something went wrong and an error has occurred.
Don’t worry, it can happen to any of us'

Where do I go from here please? Thanks.

SOLVED:

The problem was with the host. Once they had sorted out the PHP version actually running on the server, everything was OK.
Sorry to bother you all.
