How to check your
hosting provider meets these requirements:
1. You can download the Requirements Script Here.
That
script will check your system for you. All you need to do is
download the zip and upload the "check.php" to your server
and then run it from your web browser
(http:/www.yourdomain.com/check.php).
Note: Must be uploaded in binary mode or it will
not work.
2. For a more detailed and assured way
you can follow the steps below:
To find your
version of PHP, MySQL, GD (if present), and whether or not you
have safe mode OFF, download this small info.zip test
file, unzip it, FTP the info.php file to your web server,
then run it from your web browser
(http:/www.yourdomain.com/info.php).
When you run
info.php in your browser, a long page of configuration
information will appear. Your version of PHP will appear at
the top of the page:
Scroll down to the Configuration / PHP Core section
and check that the register_globals available is turned ON.
Scroll down to the Configuration / PHP Core section
and find the safe_mode variable. It will look like the follow
If it is "on", ask your host if they will disable it
for you, or consider switching to a host that will (safe_mode
prevents scripts from writing files to disk, hence uploads are
not possible).
Next, see if you already have a version
of the GD Graphics Library installed. Scroll down until you
see a section titled "gd"
Our scripts can work with GD 1.x.x (which is common),
although thumbnail images look much better with GD 2.x.x. If
you don't have GD1 or GD2 installed.
Finally, scroll
down to the section titled "mysql" to find your version of
MySQL:
| Zend Optimizer
Information |
|
We uses Zend Optimizer for its install/update files,
license key information, routine functions and admin panel.
If you run your
website on a shared hosting account you should already
have Zend Optimizer installed already since it comes
with the PHP build.
If you are running a
Dedicated Server you might have to install Zend
Optimizer. This isn't a hard task as its free to download
and only takes a few minutes to install. For more info
