The standalone interpreter still uses the standard C libraries provided by the system. Without more information, I can only guess that your shared host has a very old version of the standard C libraries available.

If there is a version of Lua 5.1 installed in your shared host that works, you can use that by setting  to the path for that binary. Otherwise, please execute the following commands and report the output.

uname -a ldd -v /hsphere/local/home/[snip]/mediawiki-1.20.4/extensions/Scribunto/engines/LuaStandalone/binaries/lua5_1_5_linux_64_generic/lua
