Parse error: syntax error, unexpected token "|", expecting ";" or "{" in C:\xampp\htdocs\professionals\engine\Model.php on line 629

this happened in another app when messing with members module and relations. I thought maybe I screwed something up or it was a mistake in the framework, so I updated (didn't fix it) and built a new app with trongate desktop but , this code persists. I am looking still at other things and learning about all this. trying to access .
I would like to reinstall Trongate but cant find "uninstall" or Trongate in my program directory.

http://localhost/professionals/members-join/submit_join

What does this mean? is it a mistake?

I get this same message when I try to login to the admin panel of a trongate framework master copy newly generated by the Desktop app.
This happens before I have done anything.
