In this email you said that no php.ini was used. However, there is one more value that you'll want to check: ; - display_errors = Off [Security] ; With this directive set to off, errors that occur during the execution of ; scripts will no longer be displayed as a part of the script output, and thus, ; will no longer be exposed to remote users. With some errors, the error message ; content may expose information about your script, web server, or database ; server that may be exploitable for hacking. Production sites should have this ; directive set to off. > > Derick Hope that helps! - Marshall
