Wrong controller function getting called - codeigniter

Question

I'm building a small HR management system for my company, and am facing a weird issue with GoDaddy hosting. As if the pain that comes with figuring out the index.php? part was not enough, now I'm not able to log in as an HR. The error I get is that:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '[' in /home/content/37/11019837/html/hrms/application/controllers/hr.php on line 58
Now the line it refers to is part of a file upload function, and goes like this:
$path = $this->upload->data()['full_path'];
. . . which is simply saving the uploaded file path to $path. BUT, this is part of the uploading function and shouldn't even be accessed while logging in. Once I hit "Log in", the URL says http://www.example.com/hrms/index.php?/hr/dashboard which means the following function will be called:
public function dashboard()
{
$data['page_title'] = 'HR Area';
$this->load->view('hr/header.php', $data);
$this->load->view('hr/navigation.php');
$this->load->view('hr/footer.php');
}
A parting note: The app is working without hiccups on the local server, so I'm not sure why it's hopping functions on GoDaddy servers. Can someone throw some light?

Answer 1

Try this:
$path = $this->upload->data();
$path1 = $path['full_path'];
