Re: Dreamhost! PHP as CGI!???

Hi Richard! Thanks for the help, I really appreciate your time and advice. :) Richard Davey wrote:

If you've got access to your account with them, you can confirm it yourself. Check the output of a phpinfo().

Ah, lol. Good call: Server API: CGI/FastCGI Virtual Directory Support: disabled Configuration File (php.ini) Path: /etc/php5/cgi/php.ini Looks like CGI to me, no? Sorry, server stuff is not my forte.

Not *that* terrible at all, but if you've only been with Dreamhost for a few days you've got far worse things to experience yet IMHO (shoddy uptime, shoddy servers, shoddy network, etc)

Lol, funny you should mention that... Within a few days of getting an account, my server went down with a bunch of other folks... I guess it was a "DOS" attack or something.

www.pair.com runs PHP 4 as an Apache Module, and are a superb host (I've used them since 1996) - but even better in the next few weeks they rollout PHP 5.2.1 as standard on all servers. Can't wait :)

Oooh, excellent. Actually, I had other folks suggest Pair too. Only reason why my client and I picked DH was the price. I guess I get what I pay for. Hmm, pair may be worth the extra $$. Do you think the "Webmaster" plan is decent for a small but soon-to-be growing site? <http://www.pair.com/services/web_hosting/webmaster.html> THanks again Richard! I greatly appreciate the help. ;) Cheers, M -- Wishlists: <http://snipurl.com/vrs9> Switch: <http://browsehappy.com/> BCC?: <http://snipurl.com/w6f8> My: <http://del.icio.us/mhulse>
