Can't activate Smart Slider 3 premium plugin

Ben, thank you.
Here is my local-beta.log

The log I mentioned before is a log provided by the Smart Slider plugin and is found in the plugins dashboard within wordpress to diagnose activation errors.
Here is the contents of that when I try to activate my plugin:
